Right
This is the first "proper" mountain bike I have had with good suspension and I think that I may not be getting the best out of them as they felt better than the spring forks I had on my Rockhopper straight away.
They are Rev RLT Dual position 150's on a cube stereo
Could some kind person in the know run though what i should be doing to set them up propoerly including where these things are and a sequence of events.
i.e. Pumped my forks up to a PSI which gives me 30% sag. But I dont even know where the -ve pressure point is on them :oops:
The gate?
The rebound
Fast compression slow compression ?
I would like them to be plush.
Cheers

Last question
At the bottom of my fork where the -ve pressure point is supposed to be there is a hex bolt.
I assume that this means that my forks are single air?0 -

The bolt on the bottom shown in the above picture, looks well.... like a bolt.
Is the -ve pressure point under this or is it.....a bolt?

just a bolt.

You are the man!
I have been all over the internet, been through every picture and manual I could find and at no point could I find what a -ve pressure point looks like.
Why to RS have so many bloody variations on the same theme!
Great help cheers.0 -
Like Nick said the Revelation Dual Position Air are solo air forks so you've set the sag up. The rest of the adjustments is rebound with the red knob at bottom of leg and compression with the blue dial/lever at the top. It also has a floodgate the small dial on top of the compression dial which I've never set on mine. The lever on the air valve side is for dropping the fork 30mm for climbing etc.0
