Right, noob question alert.
When im riding on the flat my forks (09 Reba SL) sit quite low, compressed like.
I guess its not that low but should they compress at all with flat, easy riding? They were set roughly to my weight but perhaps not quite right.
Thoughts?

so how much sag do you have in the attack position."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

Well im not sure if it bottoms out or not. I dont think it quite bottoms out. If thats what you mean....i know nothing of the settings.0

you want to set the air so you have the fork compressed by about 20-25% when you are in the riding attack as can be found in the manual."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

Ok the SL is dual air so you need to balance the chambers.
lots of posts on RS dual air set up in the tech section."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."
