I found this to be pretty helpful with setting up my Ohlins suspension on my Crestline.

I didn't see Crestline as an option on there...

I think he's suggesting using the SC Bullit numbers since the bikes are so similar. But I'm wondering if the Crestline may need less PSI in the shock since it has the Cascade link, which I would guess makes it more progressive than the Bullit.

I did use the SC Bullit numbers as I think they are close. I'm 130lbs and run the following Ohlins settings.

Fork
Main Chamber = 80psi
Ramp Up Chamber = 160psi
Rebound = 10
Compression = Wide Open

Shock
Main Chamber = 160psi
Rebound = 9
Compression = Wide Open

Any tips you can share on how you got yours sorted? Still fiddling with mine, coming from Fox it feels more challenging to me to get it where I want it, albeit the small bump sensitivity does seem better

Yep. Just got the numbers I’m using for my 75/50. Still fiddling but I think they’re close. I’m 95kg out of the shower on a size RH4.

Fork
Main: 138psi
Ramp: 260psi
LSC: 9 clicks (from closed)
HSC: open
Rebound: 10 clicks

Shock
225psi
LSC: 8 clicks
HSC: open
Rebound: 10 clicks

Still not too sure about the shock. Has anyone swapped to a coil and found things much different?

Anyone with sram transmission could you tell me what setup key you are using. I've tried both now and the same thing happens the mech moves forward and it loses b tension.

B. You’re tightening to 35Nm?

Edit. It’s A I just checked.

 

[Redders473]

Interestingly sram say A and yeah torque wrench might be off though

Actually you’re correct it is A. I just checked.

But I wonder if yours isn’t torqued correct if the mech is moving forwards.

I just put one on. It’s A.

Guys I'm trying to do the math on travel vs shock stroke.

So if

230x55 is 150mm in ST , and 230x65 is 175mm in LT but 163mm in ST what would
57.5mm be
60mm be
62.5mm be ?? Any ideas

Stoked by @Rob Rides EMTB new video today. Got mine, I think this is going to be quite a special build...
Also sticking on Ohlins coil from my old bike.

This is a super cool build

Wow. That looks great. Are they the new boxxers? Sick bike man. Let us know how she rides

Thanks dude. Troydon hooked me up with new Boxxers, 200mm front, what a legend. Got ride wrap to install and a few other mods like 220mm rotors, Zee mech. I reckon she will be a beast, can't wait and will report back (might be a while, weather is terrible here!). I've gone for the smallest size to keep things playful.
I spoke to Vorsprung and apparently a coil conversion is in the pipeline for Boxxer. Will see how it performs on air first, but my DH bike for sure will get coil fork if this happens.

Only one I have seen in real life had a bit of trouble with linkage bolts getting loose so maybe just keep a sharp eye on that. I am extremely envious. Your spec is exactly how I would want mine. I currently run 200 boxxers on my Cannondale and would never go back to single crown I wouldn't imagine

FYI the frame's not designed to run 220 on the rear dude.

Thanks. Probably better with 200mm rear anyway because of the mixed wheel size, otherwise the rear brake will be more powerful than the front.

just ordered mine.. Cant find the bike on the Ride wrap site though, or did you guys get the generic one ?

It's definitely on there. I've got the tailored protection kit. ridewrap.com

To throw another spanner in there it's a 203mm direct mount mate

The RS 75/50 eeb is the one you need. Frames are the same. Sram just the build kit it comes with. Just make sure you select the correct frame size, and wheel configuration.
