Tuning: Different types of elastomers are available from your dealer. You can custom tune
your forks by changing the stiffness of the elastomer to get the type of ride you desire. The
Q5 stock elastomer is medium in stiffness. Available options are: Stiff, Soft and Cold Weather
for temperatures below 35°F (1°C). The Q21R stock
microcellular spring setting is 4 firm (blue), 1 soft (red), and
1 solid per leg. (See Figure 2)
To change spring rate— Quadra 5: Simply unscrew the
top cap with a 22mm wrench and pull out the stock
elastomer (See Figure 3). Grease the entire new elastomer
with light-duty grease such as Judy Butter, Finish Line,
Pedro's, or others (do not use Lithium grease). Reinstall the
adjuster cap, but do not torque the adjuster cap (the cap
should just be snug against the upper tube. Quadra 21R:
To tune the MCU spring, unscrew the top cap assembly.
Remove spring stack. By using different combinations of soft
(red), firm (blue) and solid springs, almost any spring rate
you desire is possible. Greasing the MCU springs is not
required. Reinstall the adjuster
cap spring stack assembly (the
cap should just be snug against
the upper tube–see Figure 3). It may be necessary to loosen the
4mm crown bolts to remove adjuster cap. Retighten crown bolts
to 60in./lbs. (6.8N/m), alternating between top and bottom
bolts to ensure equal torque. Check upper tube engagement (see
step 6 installation instructions).
