From the Fox Shox manual.... Leverage ratio = 1.8 (stock, not DG or other after-market swing arm) Bike weight = 210-230lbs Rider weight = 220lbs with gear (Upper) Low pressure = 91 psi (Lower) High pressure = 146psi The greatest thing about Fox Shox is you can so easily make adjustments to these settings. If you ever want these re-built or re-furbished, ask me about Brian Rivers in Florida. |
