AIR SPRING PRESSURE


Set the air spring pressure using a bicycle suspension
pump for your weight according to the tables
below. Use the correct table for your fork as the air
requirements are quite different between the two
versions of the Super Fatty.

The Schrader valve is located in the fork crown. Also VALVE


note that the Schrader valve plugs of the two forks
are also different in appearance.

The wrong air pressure can result in damage or poor


fork performance. CAP
