I have a Revelation RLT Ti but it’s still a Rockshox air fork with an awful manul 🙂

I found that a Rockshox air fork with generous sag (33%) dives and blows through its travel A LOT. Consequently I run my 130mm Rev with only 20 – 25% sag, when standing on the bike in an attack position.

Then I added rebound damping. I just started slowing the fork while bouncing it in the carpark. I eyeball my rebound to get it the way I like it. Somewhere between medium and slow. I can certainly hear a lot of oil running through the ports as the fork extends – it slurps.

Finally I just muck about with my compression dial to control how active my fork is. I adjust it while riding quite a lot. I use between 3 and 5 clicks regularly, depending on the terrain. 5 for smooth, man made, swoopy stuff. 3 for rough stuff where the fork needs to be a bit more active. Less than three clicks can allow the fork to dive a little to much under braking on descents.

Oh and floodgate on full. Hope that helps a little.

I have some older (07) Reba’s and some 09 Pikes, both dual air.

The manuals all state you should balance both the positive and negative pressures, but whenever i do that i find both forks have a tendency to ‘suck down’ on repeated hits. I tend to run the negative at 15psi lower than the positive and fiddle about with the rebound til it’s right.

Have look at the setup guide for a bit of info:

When setting the pos. and neg. chambers it’s best to let all the air out of the neg. chamber then the pos. one and refill Pos then neg.

I usually set them equal and increase or decrease the pressures in 5 psi increments to suit the riders needs. (and the RS figures are a bit on the stiff side for most people too)

Hope that helps a bit 😀
