JLV, can you explain how the low speed rebound works?

Hey checkerz, what adjustments would you make to your setup going to a RM125? Your 450 one was close.

Oh I understand now, would it be possible to see a value for the sag in the menu?jlv wrote:Changing the preload changes the sag, but what he means is you want to choose your spring rate so ~4mm of preload gives you the correct sag. If you have to use a lot of preload to get the sag right your spring is too soft.yzmxer608 wrote:Referring to changing the preload is just changing the sag right?checkerz wrote:Haha Puma. Give Peter some time and I'm sure he'll have setups dialed and I'm willing to be his marketing agent to create a new company called Race Tech Virtual haha. JLV, how about creating that live tuning graph and other stuff requested and calling it the "Race Tech Virtual Tuner App"?
By the way, Race Tech recommends and runs pretty low preload numbers and it is really important on a real setup. I've seen setups go from horrible to amazing by just changing a preload number. Infact I saw Justin Sipes SX testing last year notice HALF a turn on his rear shock spring and go from "okay" to "Don't touch it, this is awesome".
On a 2013 RMZ450, 185 lbs rider MX setup we recommend 6mm of preload on forks, 4mm on the shock.

Re: 2015-09-21 snapshot
Yeah is there some sort of formula we can use to calculate sag from the preload ?
Re: 2015-09-21 snapshot
It probably could be reduced to a formula but it wouldn't be easy. I am adding some telemetry info which you'll be able to get the sag from.
It's the same as low speed compression only for the other direction.Hi Im Skyqe wrote:JLV, can you explain how the low speed rebound works?

So from 0-50 you will progressively get faster rebound and from 50-100 it will be slower?
Re: 2015-09-21 snapshot
I believe its the other way around, you will get progressively more rebound dampening.Hi Im Skyqe wrote:Thanks.jlv wrote:It probably could be reduced to a formula but it wouldn't be easy. I am adding some telemetry info which you'll be able to get the sag from.

Re: 2015-09-21 snapshot
Yeah I messed that up. What I was meaning to say was, from 50-0 you get progressively faster and from 50-100 you get aggressively slower.SMR 510RR wrote:I believe its the other way around, you will get progressively more rebound dampening.Hi Im Skyqe wrote:Thanks.jlv wrote:It probably could be reduced to a formula but it wouldn't be easy.

Re: 2015-09-21 snapshot
I'm assuming the setups posted in here are for SX? I know the one I did was, but I'm messing around with MX after Chex released the TM-Compound...but I'm struggling. Any suggestions on changes I should make from my solid SX setup to make it friendly to outdoors?

Without bumps and the big jumps on tm compound I'd guess a SX setup would be fine besides the rollers. I also built part of it with SX setupBig Smooth one3 wrote:I'm assuming the setups posted in here are for SX?
