How much air should be in a Fox Float CTD?

How much air should be in a Fox Float CTD?

Pressurize your main air chamber to a minimum of 50 psi and no more than 300 psi.

What PSI should my shocks be?

Keep in mind that air shocks are like tires: you shouldn’t operate the air shocks with no air in them. For a manual system, you should have a minimum of 20 PSI in the shocks.

What pressure should my Fox forks be?

Sag should be set to 15 – 20% of total fork travel

Suggested Starting Points for Setting Sag
Rider Weight (lbs) Rider Weight (kgs) 34 FLOAT Pressure (psi/ bar)
120-130 54-59 58psi/ 4.0 bar
130-140 59-64 63psi/ 4.3 bar
140-150 64-68 68psi/ 4.7 bar

How much pressure does a Fox 36 have?

Pressure: 65 psi. Low Speed Compression: 11 clicks. High Speed Compression: 9 clicks.

How do you inflate a Fox rear shock?

Rear Shocks

  1. Remove the Schrader air valve cap from the shock.
  2. Thread the pump’s valve chuck onto the shock’s air valve until pressure registers on the pump gauge. This takes approximately 6 turns.
  3. Stroke the pump a few cycles. The pressure should increase slowly.

How much air should I put in my suspension?

As a rough guideline, you should aim for a sag of about 20 % for the fork and 30 % for the rear shock. If yours is less than that, you can simply let some air out. If it’s more than that, you can add air with a shock pump. Recommended percentages or not: What matters most is that you feel comfortable on your bike.

How do I add air to my Fox rear shock?

What PSI is Fox 34 fork?

34 TALAS maximum air pressure is 200 psi. The recommended settings in this tuning guide are designed to be a starting point, in order to get you out on your first ride in as few steps as possible.

How much sag is 170mm fork?

STEP 1 – DETERMINE YOUR TARGET SAG

XC bikes (80 – 120mm travel): 20% – 30% sag. Trail/Enduro bikes (120 – 170mm travel): 25% – 35% sag. Downhill/Freeride bikes (170mm or more travel): 33% – 40% sag.

What is the difference between Fox rhythm and performance?

Fox 34 Performance is lighter compared to Rhythm model. You can add on several add-ons on the performance model which would provide you with the better ride. If you want to go with stock cycle, then Rhythm and Performance model doesn’t make much of a difference.

Can I use floor pump for shocks?

Condensed Answer: A floor pump cannot be used effectively for pumping up shocks because it operates with a high volume/low-pressure cylinder and many models cannot even reach the high PSI needed by shocks. The result is inaccuracy and ineffective control of the air in the shock.

What does too much rebound feel like?

TOO MUCH REBOUND DAMPING (FORK)
Rough pavement makes the fork feel as if it’s locking up with stiction and harshness. Under hard acceleration exiting bumpy corners, the front end feels like it wants to “wiggle” or “tankslap.” The tire feels as if it isn’t staying in contact with the pavement when on the gas.

What psi should my Fox rear shock be?

250psi
If the shock body retracts into the air sleeve near bottom-out after the air is released from the positive chamber, attach a FOX high pressure pump and pressurize the shock to 250psi (17 bar). If the shock does not fully extend, it is in a “stuck down” condition.

How much air do I put in my rockshox rear shock?

Can you put air in FoX shocks?

FoX shocks should be charged with nitrogen only. nitrogen will not hold moisture, and expands less as temperatures increase. Do not fill your shocks with compressed air because this will introduce moisture to the shock causing internal corrosion. FoX shocks should be left at the factory setting of 200 psi of nitrogen.

Is 35% sag too much?

Most manufacturers recommend that you set your sag somewhere between 25 to 35 percent. If your sag is higher or lower than that, you need to make some adjustments by attaching your shock pump and increasing or decreasing the air pressure in the shock and running the calculation again.

How much sag should a rear shock have?

For the rear shock – 20% – 30% sag is recommended. For the most part, this can be used across the board for trail bikes and downhill bikes. Again, keep in mind you may want more or less sag depending on your bike, weight, and riding preferences.

What is the difference between Fox Factory and performance elite?

Performance Elite has higher grade aluminium uppers with black anodising. Factory has higher grade aluminium uppers with kashima. Performance Elite and Factory are only cosmetically different. Everything is interchangable and damper options are the same.

Is the grip2 damper worth it?

Definitely more controlled and has better mid-stroke support but a little less plush off the top and a tad harder on the hands. Ultimately, worth it for the better control and less wallowing during drama terrain at speed. I’ve always been happy with the standard grip dampers even after owning several grip 2 forks.

Is 300 psi shock pump enough?

For most shocks and forks the 300 pump is all that’s necessary.

Can I use a tire pump as a shock pump?

Due to the small volume of the air chamber in forks and shocks, the amount of air loss a normal tire pump would allow would be unacceptable. You may also have a difficult time reaching the pressures required using a tire pump. Get a shock pump.

How can you tell if you’re a rebound?

7 Signs You’re Someone’s Rebound

  1. They talk about their ex all the time.
  2. Very little time has passed between their last relationship and you.
  3. They keep things superficial.
  4. The focus of the relationship is sex.
  5. They are emotionally unavailable.
  6. You have an underlying feeling of being used.
  7. They are bitter.

How do you set rebounds on Fox shocks?

How much air should I put in my Fox rear shock?

Add air pressure to the main air chamber in ~50 psi (3.4 bar) increments, slowly cycling the shock after every 50 psi (3.4 bar) addition. Set your main air chamber to between 50-300psi to prepare to set sag as described in the “Setting Shock Air Pressure” section below.

How much psi should I run in my rear shock?

The exact PSI you end up with depends on how plush/firm you want the rear shock to be, but a good starting point is 1 psi for 1 lbs in weight of the rider (including riding gear).
