RS Monarch setup.

[tjdixon911]

Just taken delivery of my new bike;



I can't find any tables/charts for the rear shock set up - It's at 250psi with 25-30% sag but thought the psi should be a lot lower - I'm somewhere between 80-90kg - I guess the answer is it's right with the sag, just was hoping for a chart for reassurance - couldn't find anything online..

Heading to Cannock tomorrow to give it a run

Couldn't find any charts for the Monarch on my Kona either, I just went off the '1 psi per pound of weight' generalisation and it seems fine.
Don't forget to take into account all your clothes and kit / helmet etc.


Lovely bike BTW.

I'm not sure I'm at the '1psi / pound of weight but it felt good today with no bottoming (not trying enough or too much pressure!) - it's not quite as clean anymore - need to set up a lit up cleaning area for it...

We had a great time - well worth the 300mile+ round trip - I'd not been since last November, have they opened some new lines since then, I didn't recognise it all..

The last section from the camp site on is really fast now! Loved it
