First ride with my new RC2 charger damper

[EMTBSEAN]

Oh man what a difference between my old charger damper and my RC2 charger damper, I dialled it in to absolute perfection which I hasten to add more luck than expertise it’s the difference between night and day in my opinion and well worth the money, the first ride was a tame one so I probably will need to adjust the high speed compression but the low speed compression is perfect, I’m just so looking forward to fitting my GX AXS tomorrow and trying that out

rebound adjustment makes the biggest noticeable difference. Get that right with HSC and LSC wide open and the fork will feel OK. Do LSC next with HSC wide open. LSC control the fork response to slower speed hits so is most noticeable on general trails and especially on compression into berms. HSC then controls those square hits that compress the fork quickly and likely further down into the travel. Coming off drops ( moderate) is a good way to feel the effect of higher HSC settings.

Yep it's a great feeling isn't it.I went for a ride yesterday & realised just how sorted the front end seemed with the fork dialed in & a new Assegai . It woud take on all the technical terrain & tight corners, the limiting factor on the bike was def me!

Cheers buddy, I’ll have a look at it tomorrow when I fit my GX AXS, although it feels pretty much dialled I will follow your advice, I’m learning all the time

Yep I know what you mean about the def thing, I’m pretty much the same Doug

I agree, actually really nice when the bike is clearly much better than you!!..Gives you room to improve!

I like that reply Mike, but then again a stone would have better MTB abilities than me
