Could someone educate me on what this is and how it works etc?

It changes rear ride height,,,,should be used in conjunction with this upper tree,,,which allows the forks to be pushed down in the clamps to "slow" the steering down,,,

Intense. I never knew this existed. I hve noticed the headshake he was describing due to how strong the forks are.

OK so Screw the nut all the way back to create a gap, unload the weight from the rear. Drop the forks 1/8 recessed in the trees.
I'll start there.[/quote]

yes - good base point. once fork tubes are set and the rear as you mentioned then you can start raising the rear if you feel like it , to your personal preference. pretty sensitive to ride height in the rear.

keep me informed

Yeah that makes sense. I may look into a larger spring, What is the next size up you think? But first I'm going to try some numbers and pull the rebound off the front. See what happens

Just went out to find the spring size.. yup same as you have.
May be worth a trip to Superplush and have James take a look. Who do you know over at Catalyst?

Dave Moss works with Catalyst. The best way to get your suspension sorted is to work with him over a couple days at the track. He'll be at Thunderhill this weekend with Keigwins.
