Now ive read the test on RCs bike and watched the videos of the nats-Rc seems to have a really slow rebound.How does he break all the rules in the book and go soo fast as well.
When i 1st started riding i liked alot of rebound damping-it gave me confidance, as i progressed and rode with a top UK rider i got used to a very light rebound on the shock-this was partly due to the rear brake on the KTM being like a lightswitch, and scareing me bad-so i used the quick rebound to get the front down over jumps instead of using the brake.
Now im going back to a more normal amount of rebound, and im thinking of trying alot more to see if i can get anything out of a different set up.
So the question is having lots of rebound must have consequeses and how does ricky overcome them and use it to his advantage, as far as i can see he brakes harder in braking bumps than most-how does he overcome packing??
Let the debate begin :yeehaw:
