THE PERFECT FIT IQ Rear Suspension Adjustments Initial Spring Preload Setting (Sag Method) To set up the rear suspension torsion spring preload, measure the distance between the ground and rear bumper. This is measurement X. Take the first measurement with no rider and with the rear suspension at full extension. Tip: The rear bumper may need to be lifted upward slightly to fully extend the rear suspension. No Rider X Next, have the rider drop down hard on the seat and bounce up and down several times, collapsing the rear suspension. With the rider seated, measure the distance between the ground and the rear bumper at the exact location used for measurement X. This is measurement Y. With Rider Y To determine sag, commonly referred to as ride-in, subtract measurement Y from X (sag=X-Y). If the measured sag is incorrect, adjust the FRA position and/or rear torsion spring preload.
