SAG
Your SCOTT bike will be supplied with a SAG tool to help set up your bikes suspension, these
SAG tools can be easily clipped on the shock body and fork dust seal.
For the best performance it is recommended you start with SAG of 25-30% for shocks and
15-20% for forks.
1. Make sure before any adjustment is made that your shock and forks are in the “open”
position.
2. With the shock pump attached to the rear shock valve, pump your desired pressure
into the shock. Once the pressure is achieved slowly compress and decompress your
shock through 25% of its travel 10 times. This will equalize the positive and negative air
chambers and will change the pressure on the pump gauge, if needed add or reduce
pressure and repeat.
Note the compression/decompression of the rear shock through the travel must also
be done if the pressure is reduced!
The same operation is used on the forks.
3. Once your desired pressure is reached slide the rubber O-ring on the shock and fork leg
against the dust seal, clip on your SAG tool if required.
4. Sit on your bike in your usual riding position (in your riding gear: if you carry a bag/
Hydration-system put it on,) don’t “bounce” the suspension while doing this, use a wall or
a friend for support if needed.
5. Get off the bike gently without bouncing and check the O-ring position on the shaft or
the fork stanchion, with the SAG adjuster clipped on. This makes it easy to see where your
SAG is set.
IMPORTANT!
Do not sit on your bike with the shock pump attached to the bike!
REBOUND SHOCK SET-UP
Rebound” describes the speed the shock returns back to its original length after absorbing
an obstacle, setting of this is very important for the handling and correct function of the bike.
The rebound adjustment lever can be found on the head of the shock
After the shock pressure/sag is correctly set ride your bike in a safe area with your riding
gear/backpack, etc. While remaining in the saddle, ride you bike off a drop/kerb of about
10-15 cm.
-If it bounces 1-2 times and settles the set-up is good.
-If it bounces more than 3 times the rebound is too fast, turn the knob 1-2 “clicks”
clockwise and repeat.
-If there is no bounce the rebound is too slow, turn the knob 1-2 click counter clockwise
and repeat.
-Repeat these steps until the desired result is achieved.
Your SCOTT Genius bike was designed to be used in conjunction with a specific shock and
forks, changing the shock or forks on your bike may cause poor/unsafe riding characteristics
or damage to frame and components, please consult your SCOTT dealer for any assistance
you need, failure to do this may affect your warranty
