Hello fellow BARFer's,
After a long ride today, I feel like my suspension is too stiff for my weight (it has not yet been set since i recently purchased the bike). The bike seems to pogo when it hits a bump or imperfection in the road and it really doesn't feel like it's absorbing the road (especially the sh*tty roads).
I've googled this and came up with dave moss on YouTube explaining sag, static sag, free sag; all of which I understand the basic concept.
But what about rebound/compression?
I would like to try and set up my suspension before I go on a group ride tomorrow, as it seems like anything will do better than my current set up.
EDIT: Problem solved. If you are having similar issues and feel like you are in my position as stated, check THIS out and it should get you off on the right foot.
EDIT: Here's an Excel spreadsheet for you to record your measurements easily and have an organized way of keeping track. I'm OCD and need this lol.
