December 20, 20187 yr Trs 250rr. Trying to find out base settings on my shock. To find out information is virtually impossible. Basically i have changed the spring for a 80 n/mm one due to being a chunky lover. I have pre loaded the spring to 133mm (or by 7mm), this gives me no static sag and a race sag of around 60mm. I have set rebound to 10 clicks out and the compression to 35 clicks out. Does this sound about right as a base? Any advice greatly appreciated, many thanks ??

I dont think i could get static sag if i tried with the heavier spring in. I've also read that setting the preload to 8.5mm should give you no static sag. I have also been in contact with reiger to confirm which spring i need but they haven't got back to me regarding set up. ?
December 21, 20187 yr If you have no rear static sag with 7mm preload, then loosen it up a bit and try 5mm, 4mm or 3mm preload with 80N spring. A compromise with lighter springs is to use more preload, but since you probably have a stiffer spring appropriate for your weight, less preload on spring will allow a softer ride at initial impact with larger objects.

Thanks, I'll give it a try??
