Hairy Posted September 19, 2020 Posted September 19, 2020 Tip of the day Take a flexible ruler and cut it down the length as narrow as possible so that you can still read the numbers, and then cut it a bit longer than the max travel of your bike ... if you have a 120mm travel bike, chop it around the 150mm mark. Make a small hole on the end and run some thin string or fishing line through the hole, tie knot and then with enough length on the string, tie it to your shock pump. You now have a ruler on hand at all times to measure your sag when using the pump. You can also do the math up front and mark off the sag you are wanting on the ruler and then it makes life easier when doing your setup.This has been attached for a good many years now. I used kite string. MajG and Eddy Gordo 2

Hairy Posted September 19, 2020 Posted September 19, 2020 This has been attached for a good many years now. I used kite string.Note that the ruler is cut on the zero line, so that you can place this edge on the top of the seal and take your measurements. Eddy Gordo 1
