Bull Shit Bingo anyone?
I think I have a full house
Just because your brain is made of fluff! 😛
Think about it – an air spring gets softer as it extends so if you have equal rebound damping all the way through the stroke then it won’t spring back hard, it’ll over-dampen its push. If the rebound damping also diminishes then it won’t be over-dampened.
I’ve noticed it was much easier to get the back of my bike with its strongly progressive linkage to both corner with lots of grip and pop off jumps well whilst it’s taken a lot more tweaking to get a similar balance from the Pike up front.
Is this another advantage of coil springs?
