lineaway Posted January 22, 2018 Report Share Posted January 22, 2018 Did you do the work? It sounds like there is too much oil. Do the forks travel as far as they used to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scifi Posted January 22, 2018 Report Share Posted January 22, 2018 If your forks are the same as my Beta forks, the handbook says that the left adjuster adjusts the pre-load, which for your weight should be 5 turns inwards (10 turns if you are over 80Kg.) The right adjuster controls the damping effect, totally unscrew this for very quick damping. For a more controlled damping turn inwards by 15 clicks (out of the 30 click maximum.) Or adjust for your riding style. . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lineaway Posted January 22, 2018 Report Share Posted January 22, 2018 Actually the Beta manual gives the settings for your weight, but I question if the forks were done correctly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
