Message: [QUOTE="drehwurm, post: 131460, member: 20888"] Servus, Marcus: It is a no-brainer to say the current setup is easily the best I've had so far. What I like soo much on the MX-Tech setup is, that this 'blow through the stroke' feeling is completely gone. Before I was always a little cautious when I saw deep ditches or g-outs, but now I just aim for them and gas it :D Yes, I've also become a convert to the soft spring/much preload side, but the downside you describe is true: on a muddy ride you are much closer to the edge than with stiffer springs. But then, on muddy enduros I'm in survial mode anyway and not going for some brave heroic riding. As for the base valve, I actually increased LSC a little. That's because I had the feeling that I was lacking low speed control (for example on downhills) after increasing midvalve float, but had to use too stiff clicker settings to compensate for this. Increasing LSC on the base valve did exactely what I wanted without becoming to harsh like with the clickers. But Jeremys setup relies a lot on midvale damping so this was to be expected. Bud-Man: Right now I'm running 0.65mm of MV float which is considerably more than the MX-Tech setup, but way less than stock. I think stock is around 1.5mm which IMHO brings the MV into play very late - too late! I can't imagine increasing MV float from 1.5mm on an already soft setup did work, but I might have missunderstood something here. Did you measure your stock MV float and what setting are you at now? Things are getting very complex here again. Jer gave me a base-setup I could start working with, finding good MV settings (float, valving) for the stock pistons is another chapter, but I agree with Bud-Man that this is probably the key to get those WP's working.
