i've never altered my rev'3 from it's factory settings, should i leave it as it is or alter it , on the back shock you can alter the speed of it what should i be aiming for a fast response or a slow one ? also what about the front i weigh about 14 stone if that helps , cheers mick

Not sure what level of rider you are but i feel the harder sections you are doing the harder and more bouncy you want the suspension. I ride british expert level and weigh about 12 and a half stone and find the suspension much better if you turn the damping right off on both ends and also wind the preload right up as far as it goes on both forks and rear shock. This makes the thing like a po-go stick which is good for flicking the bike about and also when you hit the big steps hard it never bottoms out. However, these adjustments can make the bike grip less and also bounce around more in rocky streams. The standard suspension settings work fine for clubmen riders so its just a matter of setting the bike up for your level and preferences.

cheers ksv i'll try some tinkering with it , everyone seems to be able to move there bike round quite easily ,it seems to be glued to the ground when i try it
