FAST M-10 Rear Suspension Adjustments Static Sag and Ride Height Settings Ski Pressure 4. There are also two front arm mounting holes in the slide rail that can adjust ski pressure. The lower hole (A) increases ski pressure while the upper hole (B) decreases ski pressure. NOTE: THE PERFECT FIT B A By design, the BIASED COUPLE design of the M-10 suspension displaces the rear arm as the front arm is compressed. This means that when you raise the front limiter strap, at some point you will collapse the rear suspension arm, which will affect SAG height and reduce rear suspension travel.

THE PERFECT FIT
FAST M-10 Rear Suspension Adjustments
Static Sag and Ride Height Settings
Ski Pressure
4.
There are also two
front arm mounting
holes in the slide rail
that can adjust ski
pressure. The lower
hole (A) increases ski
pressure while the upper
hole (B) decreases ski pressure.
NOTE:
By design, the BIASED COUPLE design of the M-10
suspension displaces the rear arm as the front arm is
compressed. This means that when you raise the front
limiter strap, at some point you will collapse the rear
suspension arm, which will affect SAG height and reduce
rear suspension travel.
