[QUOTE="Ivan Liechty, post: 24380, member: 16316"] That is why you never try out new settings at a race... that is what practice is for. Not to dissappoint you Lee but clicker settings is like jetting... you have to learn by trial and error. Most suspension setups that are effected by the clicker can only be found through trial and error. Jer can do a re-valve, change springs and come really close with a general clicker setting but you may not need all that. The best thing to do is to take a day to go out to the track, record the conditions in a log, try different clicker positions, be very careful and log each setting. Then do the same at a different track. Have you read Jer's website? I have printed off many things from there and use it every time I go riding. I usually adjust the clickers each time I go riding depending on conditions. There is no one setting that works for all. Also, look through Eric's book (either one) and there is a great write up on how to diagnose suspension. One thing is that someone can use a camcorder to film you while you ride and then you can diagnose certain aspects afterwards. Your mother can help you with that. [b][/b] BTW, as for being 17 and doing it all on your own... I was there and had to do it on my own. All on my own. That is why I had to give up bikes, get a job, pay my way through college and then wait to get back into bikes. At 17 I ran varsity track, varsity cross country, played varsity basketball AND worked 24 hours a week (mostly 12 hour third shift on weekends). You know I like you Lee, you know I respect what you are doing at 17 but that sob story doesn't work with me b/c I know many people who have it worse and do better. You have to play with the hand you are dealt. You are very lucky you have your mother to help. [This message has been edited by Ivan Liechty (edited 01-04-2001).] [/QUOTE]
