For all you Rockshox gurus

I've got a 2nd hand pair of RS Revelation 426 Dual Air (2007) for my lad. He weighs about 8st (112lbs) wet through.

The indicated pressures on the fork leg have a minimum rider weight of 10st (140 lbs) with a recommended positive air pressure of 80 - 100 psi. Personally, I always think the pressures listed on RS forks are on the high side.

Is there a minimum positive air pressure that we shouldn't go below? Or do I just set them up for the appropriate sag whatever the pressure?

    Set for sag, you may and at such a low pressure you may need some tokens (genuine or ghetto) to get the right progression.

  • The pressures advised are way off inmy experience. Just set sag
