Changing the Spring Rate
Spring rate is the amount of force needed to compress a spring one inch. Changing
your fork's coil spring for a spring of a higher or lower rate will alter the overall feel of
your fork. Higher spring rates make the fork feel more "stiff", while lower spring rates
make the fork more "supple". Contact your local RockShox dealer to order
replacement springs.

Coil U-turn Travel Adjust (Recon, Tora)
U-Turn forks offer 45mm of travel adjustment (Recon/Tora: 85 to 130mm). To determine the travel
on your fork, use the travel gradients on the upper tube (except Tora).
Turning the U-turn adjuster knob counterclockwise increases travel. Each turn increases or
decreases the travel by 7.5 mm.
Changing Travel (Recon and Tora)
To change the travel of your fork (Recon and Tora: 80, 100 or 130) you must perform a
full service on your fork. To obtain service information or instructions, visit our website
at www.rockshox.com or contact your local RockShox dealer or distributor.

External Rebound Adjustment
Rebound damping controls the speed at which a fork returns to its full extension
following compression. Located at the bottom of the right fork leg is the rebound
adjuster knob. Turning the adjuster in the direction indicated by the "rabbit" on the
rebound speed decal decreases rebound damping, causing the fork to return to full
extension faster. Turning the adjuster in the direction indicated by the "turtle" increases
rebound damping, slowing the return of the fork to full extension.
Excessive rebound damping will cause the fork to "pack up" over successive bumps ,
reducing travel and causing the fork to bottom out. Set your fork to rebound as fast as
possible without "topping out" or kicking back. This allows your fork to follow the
contours of the trail, maximizing sta b i l i t y, traction and control.

damping as well as 'Lock' threshold sensitivity.
Proper setup of the Motion Control Damping system provides a range of options for efficient yet
comfortable performance. The instructions below describe setup and operation for both crown
and remote activated forks.
In the 'Open' position, the Motion Control Damping system allows for maximum
compliance and fork movement. The 'Open' position provides ultimate control and
.
comfort on even the roughest terrain.
To return your fork to the 'Open' position:
• For forks with the crown-mounted blue compression adjuster, rotate the adjuster fully
counterclockwise.
.
• For PopLoc equipped forks, press the "unlock" release button on the remote (as indicated
by the open padlock icon on the button).
