[QUOTE="NO HAND, post: 737605, member: 18937"] I'll take a shot at it. I think you are right that springs determine where the suspension rides in the stroke but are not mainly responsible for harshness or plushness. The hydraulic system (valving) takes care of that. The adjustments (comp. reb. clicker) will make a good system more versatile but won't make up for one that is poorly setup. With rider sitting on the bike, everyone's bike should be adjusted to sag approximately the same; usually it is 100mm rear and the front is more tricky to calculate, some say around 40mm front. The sag that matters most is the race sag-(with rider on bike). The static sag is just a way to confirm you have an acceptable spring rate for your weight. [/QUOTE]
