was out today a wee 13miles round the local area...first time ive been out on my new Zesty...
shock and fork set-up according to fox's iphone app...but felt a little soft to me...maybe cos im used to road bikes...sag on the rears about 20%....any suggestions? just fire some more air in both?
Climb mode on the shock was tremendous, but still not fully stiffening up on the forks....i guess there is no complete lock-out like the older forks?

It'll work well enough to make climbing more efficient but has a blow off valve if you forget to change it.
In terms of sag you are at the firmer end already, 25-30% is the norm. Did you use all your travel?0 -
yea went through the travel a few times.....the zestys sag indicator is saying 17 FR (the other option is 12 XC) when im sitting on it....
here is a picture without me on it

Well its not too soft then, but you can still put more air in to firm it up if you want!0

Bear in mind you won't be able to use the full travel though.0

If you are using full travel but not bottoming out it sounds about right0 -
