Specialized Brain Shock

[mtbrider]

Hi Hubbers.

 

I need some help with setting up the shock pressure on my 2016 specialized epic comp. I have only done about 5 rides with it so far.

I weigh about 108kg with all my gear and it feels as if my rear shock is bobbing when using the auto sag setup. My brain sensitivity is on max and rebound on slow.

 

Is it only my imagination? Does anyone weighing the same set it up differently?

 

Help will be appreciated and thanks for any inputs.

 

Regards.

No one as heavy as me riding a specialized?

I dont use the autosag function. Just pump the shock and check the sag "manually".

I ride a stumpy, also on the heavy side. I added medium sized volume spacer and that helped me out. Was able to fix the bobbing without pumping the shock to a stupid pressure. Also stopped the shock from bottoming out on bigger hits.

Thanx for all the info so far. 

 

Do you then just pump it and test untill you get about 20% sag or is there a rule according to your weight?
