MattMinter03 Posted March 3, 2020 Posted March 3, 2020 Yo everyone. Just wondering what the best shops are in the Gauteng area to get your suspension serviced.
Ashchest Posted March 3, 2020 Posted March 3, 2020 You can try Cogent Industries if Faerie Glen is not too far for you. I have met the guys there and they are awesome and know their stuff.
thebob Posted March 3, 2020 Posted March 3, 2020 Cogent for sure. But if you just need a lower or air can service, hit up YouTube and DIY it
Greg3085 Posted April 11, 2020 Posted April 11, 2020 I ride a Scott spark 700 ultimate I weigh 100kg what should the PSI be for the front and rear shocks ?
ChrisF Posted April 11, 2020 Posted April 11, 2020 I ride a Scott spark 700 ultimate I weigh 100kg what should the PSI be for the front and rear shocks ? The rule of thumb : REAR : 2x your weight, thus 200psi Front : 1x your weight, thus 100psi this is a good starting point. Now check the "sag" when you are on the bike ... Next, check how much of the shock travel you use on the trails ... I aim for 80 to 90% travel on a hard/bumpy ride. On my current bike I am now at 2x at the rear, and slightly less than 1x on the front .... On my Scott I was a bit more than 2x at the rear and also a bit more than 1x on the front.
