[QUOTE="Barbarian, post: 729005, member: 26477"] I'm a 180 pound "A" rider and have been riding for some time. On every bike I've owned, I always start of setting the sag to the recomended settings. Usually that is around 100mmm or 4 inches. After this, I always find myself lowering the preload over the next few months. I usually back it out about 1/2 turns at a time. Everytime I lower the preload the bike feels better and turns better. I feel more stable on the bike and the front end doesn't tuck under so much. I never have a problem with the front end washing out. I usually end up happiest with about 130mm of sag. This is a whole lot of sag. What I'm wondering is it all that uncommon for people to like running this much. I've heard that some pro riders, like Jeremy Mcgrath and Ricky Carmichal like there bikes to sqat a lot in the rear end. [/QUOTE]
