ENDURO SL SHOCK SETUP
Set sag (A):1.
See the attached air chart for starting
pressure. Use a high-pressure shock pump
to add air.
Push the rubber o-ring up to the seal, sit
on the bike gently, dismount gently and
measure the distance between the shock
seal and the o-ring (sag).
Adjust air pressure until desired sag is
reached. (This can be veried following
the steps on p.6 or the measurements
below the air chart).
Air pressures may vary depending on rider
style
and/or terrain.
Adjust rebound (B):2.
The red knob (see gure below) controls the
rebound damping, the rate which the shock
returns after the shock has been compressed.
Turn the knob clockwise for slower
rebound (slower speeds, bigger hits).
Turn the knob counter-clockwise for
faster rebound (higher speeds, small
bumps).
Adjust compression (C):3.
Specialized Enduro shocks are equipped
with a spike valve to optimize the shock’s
compression.
Low-speed compression (induced by rider’s
body weight - pitching, diving) is adjustable by
turning the blue lever (see gure below). The
lever is adjustable from 1 (Soft) to 4 (Firm).
Turn the lever clockwise for a rmer ride.
The 4 setting can be seen from the top of
the lever, and F (Firm) is visible on the lever.
Turn the lever counter-clockwise for
a more supple ride, more traction. The 1
setting can be seen from the top of the
lever, and S (Soft) is visible on the lever.
NOTE: The spike valve system is a pre-set
high-speed compression oil ow device
congured to release a large volume of oil to
prevent shock spiking at higher frequencies
(terrain induced impacts).
