Just wondering how people are setting up their Bloods. I'm having a bit of trouble getting a 'fast reacting and super supple rear end' as described by Orange. Its fine for single hits but I get bounced off the pedals a bit in the rough.
Think it needs a very firm shock pressure and a quick rebound, im currently running 190psi and 5 clicks from slow, compared to my five which is 170psi and 3 clicks from slow. Anyone running permanent propedal?
Also, I have managed to stop the rear mech cable from rubbing the guides but it looks like I will have to replace the outer every 2 or 3 months!
Give Orange Tech department a call
Also give MOJO a call has you may need to change the Booster valve
to your wheight and style, cost about £ 28 quid.
Maybe come down a couple of clicks on the rebound and take a little
psi out of the shock.
If you want the bike to be supple, then ramping up the shock pressure will probably not be the best idea. Have you checked you have 25-30% sag when sat on the bike in full riding gear. Setting sag is probably the first place i'd start, then rebound, then propedal.
