PRELOAD SAG & LOCKOUT
The "lock-out" function closes the compression damping of the fork when riding standing up or riding uphill.
The fork is not locked 100% as within this system is a clever facility that utilises the last 20mm of travel for hydrau-
lic oil pressure only called the "anti-blow-off system ". It is not usable in normal circumstances and is only utilised
when on very demanding terrain or in case you forgot to unlock the fork and stops the fork from bottoming out
The XC32 also includes our Hydraulic Gated lock out system which is a system that stiffens or softens the suspen-
sion incrementally. It is suggested that you set this as soft as possible, as a rule of thumb, you want your "SAG" to
be set at 20/30% of your travel.
Please not that due to the sophistication of the Hydraulic lockout system we have disconnected the preload knob
from the mechanical spring
Regardless, you should never switch your fork to "Full lock-out mode" when riding in demanding terrain or when
jumping. The fork may become damaged when it is compressed under a high load. This can also lead to accidents
and injuries.
