6. If you sit on the bike with minimal tension on the spring and there is less than one quarter of the
shock travel, a lighter weight spring is needed. If you turn the shock tension collar three complete turns
and the shock compresses more than a quarter of the shock’s travel, a heavier spring is needed.
Consult your Authorized Giant Retailer for replacement springs.
Never tighten the spring tension collar past three turns from minimum tension as doing
so will cause the spring to " coil bind " which can cause damage to the spring and internal workings of
the shock.

Giant’s Maestro rear suspension design precisely positions the pivots and linkages to give you efficient
pedaling and small bump compliance. Maestro’s pivot placement allows the rear suspension to be
completely active under pedaling and braking, allowing the rear wheel to react constantly to the terrain.
