5.5 ADJUSTING THE COMPRESSION
The compression damping regulates the compression speed of the shock and can be adjusted in three
stages via the lever on the shock.
OPEN:
In "OPEN" mode, the compression of the shock is in the most sensitive, factory-set setting. The shock
responds sensitively to small bumps in the terrain.
DRIVE:
If the lever on the shock is moved to the middle position, the compression
damping is partially closed. This makes the bike much more firm
and encourages effective pedalling in situations where the full
performance of the shock is not required (uphill climbing on roads or
easy trails, rides on level ground).
LOCK:
If the lever on the shock is moved to the "LOCK" position, the flow of oil
at the shock piston is blocked. A blow off valve opens the flow of oil in
the event of heavy impacts and therefore prevents damage to the shock.
The shock is also available as a remote version. For information on
mounting and adjusting the remote system, please visit www.dtswiss.

5.6 ADJUSTING THE REBOUND
The rebound damping regulates the rebound speed of the shock and
can be set by rotating the red rebound wheel by around 40 clicks (shock
with standard mount) or 22 clicks (shock with trunnion mount).
→ The rebound damping is increased in a clockwise direction.
→ The rebound damping is decreased in an counterclockwise
direction.
If the rebound damping is too low, the rear wheel will rebound
too quickly. A rebound damping that is set too low will be felt
through the frame bouncing up when riding.
If the rebound damping is too high, the rear wheel can no
longer follow rapid-succession impacts and the suspension
hardens.
The aim of the rebound setting is to absorb the rebound
movement as effectively as possible based on the demands
of the terrain. On fast, rough descents, for example, a lower
rebound damping (= faster rebound speed) should be selected
than on smooth descents without any major obstacles.
