|   How do I check sag on my FSR Enduro Comp w/ Fox Float? | Lou S
Dec 19, 2001 9:56 PM | | Guys,
I just got a great deal on a medium FSR Enduro Comp . It has a Fox Float shock and I'm trying to adjust the rear sag but I have a couple of questions:
1) How do I find out what stroke the shock is?
2) If I understand correctly from the Fox web-site, if the shock has 1.5" of stroke then sag should be about 10mm. Sound right?
3) How do I find out what year the bike is? Is it coded in the serial number? The guy bought it, rode once and sold it but can't remember what year the bike is. It's kind of blue/gray with red accents, Manitou SX-LT forks, and has Hayes hydraulic discs.
Thanks for any help.
Lou. |

Get off, and measure how much the zip tie moved from up against the body of the shock. That's your sag. If you want less sag, put more air in shock, less, take some out.
Good Luck |

Thanks for the help.

Sit on the bike will all your weight (without bouncing, get off the bike and measure the distance between the o-ring and the sleeve seal, it should be 3/8". Add or subtract air to get the correct measurement. |
