4.4.5 Setting the rebound on your fork and on your shock
Shocks, pneumatic forks and some hydraulic forks are equipped with a dial that enables easy
adjustment of the rebound level. On the shock, this dial is situated in the same position as the
lockout lever (Figure 25). On the forks, this dial is usually placed under the right fork leg and can
be found thanks to the sticker marked "rebound" (Figure 25). This is usually in the color red.

The rebound of your suspension controls the speed at which the stroke returns to neutral after
a shock. The perfect setting is therefore not always easy to find and can depend on several
different factors: your riding ability, the terrain on which you are riding, as well as your riding
style. Don't hesitate to go to your local Moustache retailer to help you set this up.
N.B. : This setting should be carried out after you have adjusted your SAG (see preceding
paragraphs).
If you would like your suspension to be more lively (to be closer to that of a spring), you should
turn the dial in the direction that is indicated with a "+" or an image of a rabbit "
be able to feel that your suspension is more reactive and comes back quickly to its initial
position.
Conversely, if you would like your suspension to be less lively, then you should turn the dial in
the direction that is indicated with a "-" or an image of a tortoise "
N.B. : The images used may have a different signification depending on the brand. Do not
hesitate to consult the notice provided by the manufacturer of your fork.
Here is a more advice to help you set up your fork:
• The symptoms of a too slow rebound: during a passage of numerous big shocks
one after the other, as in a rocky descent or steps, your suspension will push
down without having the time to come back to its original position. You will need
to increase the rebound of your suspension.
• The symptoms of a too fast rebound: the behavior of your suspension will resemble
that of a spring, your bike will lose contact with the ground during a rough part
of trail. Your bike will lose grip and therefore will underperform. You will need to
decrease the rebound of your suspension.

4.4.6 Cleaning
• Make sure you clean the stanchions after each usage, with a little soapy water
and a soft sponge.
• Then wipe all the surfaces with a soft cloth.
• Carefully inspect all the seals, these guarantee the correct functioning of your forks
and above all their reliability.
Some of the maintenance of your fork, such as lubrication and purging should be carried out
following the specific recommendations of the manufacturer (for this you need to refer to the
notice produced by the manufacturer). These operations should be entrusted to a specialist
who has the correct tools and the knowledge necessary to effectively accomplish this.

4.5 WHEELS

4.5.1 The tires
We have equipped your Moustache bike with high performance tires made by well-known brands.
We advise you to take into account their individual characteristics, in order to be able to benefit from
them for as long as possible.
> Regularly check the wheel is not buckled or damaged.
The good maintenance of tires needs:
• Sound rims and a rim base in good condition.
• Putting talcum powder from time to time on the inner tube and inside the tire.
• A correct level of pressure. For this, check the span of pressures that
is written on the tire's flank. You do not need to inflate the tire up to the
maximum level indicated, but rather to the level that suits you for the
amount of comfort and grip that you wish to have. You can find the levels
that we advise in the technical Moustache notice that is available on our
website www.moustachebikes.com/en/manuals. Do not go over the maximum
pressure indicated on the tire's flank, or you risk exploding the tire. Leaving the
pressure too low increases your risk of a pinch flat.
• Check the tire frequently for any element that might attach itself to the tire or
knobbles, and remove them.
Some models of tires have a specific design that means there is a sense of rotation that must be
respected. Always follow this sense of direction, as indicated by the arrows on the flank of these
tires.
Mounting a tire or an inner tube:
If you wish to change an inner tube or a tire, for example after a flat, first check the condition of the
rim and rim base, the inner tube and the tire. Always use the same size of tire and of inner tube as
those originally provided with the bike, or go to your local bike retailer to know which other sizes
may be compatible.
