Cool Fox shock psi????

Ay up all,

Is there a site you can go to to find out what psi I should be running in my RP23 fox shock. I have other bikes with older fox shocks so would like to know if the same pressure should be run in them as well.

It will vary with the bike. Aim for the first 25% of the travel to be taken up with sag when you sit on it. That's what the O-ring on the shaft is there to tell you.

Fox have a fantastic website which has a great video on setting up your sag. Hawkins is right re the 25% thing and that of course will depend on your bike and your weight. If you continue to adjust the air until you get 25% you're laughing.... alternatively go and have a look at their website, it's a ripper.
