Can I ask arh ... something about the rear shock absorber of my bike ..

 

The website defines spring preload to be = "Preload" (or "preload length") is the distance the spring is compressed from its free length as it's installed with the suspension fully extended.

 

So for example, when i increase the spring preload by tightening the adjuster nut at the shock absorber, means the shock absorber is more 'compressed'?

Lessons:

 

1) Dont panic. Panic make you cannot use brain

2) Dont dream on the road :faint: ...

3) Look at where you're going and your own bike ... dont peep at others one :dot:

firstly.. why referred to the website? since all people's weight and preference is diff.. haha..

2nd.. if you tighten.. if means it will "jump" back faster.. imagine you r riding fast now.. den a hole in front.. didn't manage to siam.. go in and out of the hole.. jump back.. you fly off.. bike continue infront.. so.. best is dun anyhow adjust... and wat if you over tighten and spoil the whole thing? worse.. :sian:
