Suspension upward pop.. How to?

Post by Stylaren »

Hello!

Can anyone suggest some tweaks to the suspension to get more upward pop on jumps.. My bike tends to keep low on the jump which sometimes is good but on some SX tracks. It feels like i got alot of speed but no air and this often results to short brake length on thight SX tracks. I've seen guys on 250s hit bigger lines effortlessly then me..

Thanks!

So you mean seat bounce? You need to seat bounce, they are not just holding the throttle and doing bigger lines. Yes having the correct suspension helps when seat bouncing but you can still seat bounce with any suspension setup. To seat bounce watch this video made by kellen>

Oh and also, for the suspension, what you are looking for is called preload. Adjust that and you will get a better suspension for seat bouncing.
