9.2.8 Problem with SR SUNTOUR suspension fork
9.2.8.1 Rebound too fast
The suspension fork rebounds too quickly,
producing a "pogo stick" effect, where the wheel
lifts from the ground in an uncontrolled way. This
impairs traction and control (blue line).
Fork head and handlebars are deflected upwards
if the wheel bounces back from the ground. Body
weight may be thrown up and back in an
uncontrolled way (green line).
Figure 228: Suspension fork rebounding too quickly
Solution
Turn rebound screw in a clockwise direction. The rebound speed is decreased (slower
return).
