My shock felt a little wooden the other day so I’ve experimented with adding more bands. (Also fitted new Hope DH wheels with a tube so this may have had an effect on how the bike felt as the new wheels are strong than the previous and I was now running a tube until new tyres arrive)
Bike is a 2016 Reign for reference.
Around a year ago I fitted 3 bands as I was smashing through the travel. This helped massively but I still managed to knock the O ring off the shock body on a few occasions still. This was at 30% sag.
So I added 2 more bands, 5 in total now, due to the change do I run more sag, perhaps 35% and theoretically I’ll have more end ramp up so would bottom out or shall I continue with 30%?
What’s your experience when doing similar?
