[QUOTE="brandolph, post: 713211, member: 35628"] What do ya'all think most beginners do wrong when making suspension settings? I know when I got back into biking I rode for a year with my sag set to light (as I'm only 5'6" and was looking for a lower seat height) and now that I've got that right it seems like as I progress I'm steadily adjusting my compression settings a bit stiffer and setting the rebound so it rebounds faster too. Both front and back. I'm always tinkering with em but I've never been videoed through woops or anything-pretty much just trying to figure out what feels best. Is it common for beginners to ride with too much rebound dampening? I probably ride 50/50 track/woods and try to get the bike to handle the track as best as I can and then deal with those settings in the woods. If I'm going on a long, gnarly woods ride I'll usually back off on the comp. settings a bit but that's about it. [/QUOTE]
