Tire-to-Crown Clearance

WARNING

Modiﬁcation or installation of damping

cartridge/spacers other than speciﬁed; or

installing over-sized tires can result in incorrect

tire-to-crown clearance

10mm

If tire clearance is less than minimum

speciﬁed, the rotating tire could come into

contact with the frame causing the wheel to

stop suddenly. This can throw a rider off the

bicycle or result in a loss of control and crash.

CHECK FOR MINIMUM TIRE FORK/FRAME

CLEARANCE (10 mm) WITH ALL AIR RELEASED

FROM LEFTY AND FULLY COMPRESSED.

Measure between the top of the properly

inﬂated tire (1) and the bottom of the fork

steerer (2).

YOU CAN BE SEVERELY INJURED, PARALYZED

OR KILLED IN AN ACCIDENT IF YOU IGNORE

Setting Sag

Sag is the distance the SUPERMAX compresses when the bike is statically loaded with your

body weight in your riding position. Set it according to the SUPERMAX travel. Sag is set by

changing the air pressure through the Schrader valve at the bottom of the SUPERMAX

SAG

To set sag:

1. Remove the Schrader valve cap (1) at the

bottom of the SUPERMAX Attach a bicycle

suspension pump to the Schrader valve

(2). See Figure 1.

2. Set the recommended intial starting air

pressure according to your weight.

3. Slide the sag O-ring (3) against the wiper

seal (4). See Figure 2.

3. Sit on bike in riding position and

dismount.

Note: Your riding position affects weight

distribution and therefore sag. For

example, in the “Attack” position

(Figure 3). the rider’s weight is distributed

equally front and rear.

4. Measure the sag distance. See Figure 4.

Sag Trouble Shooting

Too much sag add air in small

increments

Too little sag reduce air in small

increments

Excessive

bottom out

increasing air pressure

harsh ride or

limited travel

reduce air pressure

NOTICE

A dirty pump or valve end can result in

contamination, damage, and air loss.

Make sure pump and valve are clean

before attachment.
