9.4 Suspension:
For products with suspension there are a few adjustment procedures you need to be aware of:
•
Although your suspension is adjustable it
comes pre-adjusted and ready to ride from
the factory.
•
To make adjustments to your suspension,
screw the adjustment screws in CW (tighten)
for stiffer suspension feel, or out CCW
(loosen) for a more plush feel.
•
It may take a bit of riding for the suspension
to adapt completely to the adjustments made.
Adjustments should be made in small
increments and a light thread lock fluid may be
needed to secure screw setting.
•
The nut in the middle of the suspension
“knuckle” is for the disassembly of the
suspension. It takes special tools to assemble
the suspension properly so consult an authorized Go-Ped® Dealer before attempting any
replacement of internal suspension parts. However, tightening and or loosening this center nut
also stiffens and loosens the suspension so for models without the 4 adjustment screws you
can tighten CW this center nut for a stiffer feel or loosen CCW for a softer one. You just need to
make sure that the nut does not come off and liquid thread lock like Locktite is recommended if
you are loosening for a softer feel.
