Before You Ride

Make sure that your fork is ready to ride

1. Check that quick-release levers are properly adjusted and tightened.
2. Inspect the entire exterior of your fork. The fork should not be used if any of the exterior parts appear to be damaged. Contact your local dealer or FOX for further inspection and repair.
3. Check your headset adjustment. If loose, adjust it accordingly to your bicycle manufacturer's recommendations.
4. Check that all brake cables or hoses are properly fastened.
5. Test the proper operation of your front and rear brakes on level ground.
6. Before every race or ride, clean the outside of your fork with only mild soap and water, and wipe dry with a soft dry rag. Do not spray water directly into the seal/upper tube junction. Do not use a high pressure washer on your fork.

Setting Fork Air Pressure

34 TALAS maximum air pressure is 200psi

Sag should be set to 15 – 20% of total fork travel

1. Set your TALAS travel adjuster to the long travel setting (fully clockwise).
2. Unscrew the blue air cap on top of the left fork leg counter-clockwise to expose the schrader valve.
   
3. Attach a FOX High Pressure Pump to the schrader valve.
4. Pump your fork to the appropriate pressure as listed in the 'Suggested starting points for setting sag' table below, then remove the pump.
5. Using your forks sag setting o-ring on the left upper tube (or temporarily install a zip tie to the upper tube), slide the o-ring (or zip tie) down against the fork dust wiper.
   
   
6. Rotate the CTD lever to the Descend mode (the riders 1 o'clock position).
   If you have a Remote CTD fork, click the black release lever once to set the fork to Descend mode.
   
   
7. Dressed to ride (including a filled hydration pack, if you use one), position your bike next to a wall or table to support yourself. Mount your bicycle. Assume your riding position for at least 10 seconds, allowing the suspension to fully settle. Make sure you distribute your weight evenly between the saddle, handlebars and pedals.
8. While in your riding position, slide the o-ring (or zip tie) down against the fork dust wiper.
9. Dismount your bike without bouncing, to avoid further moving the o-ring or zip tie. Measure the distance between the dust wiper and the o-ring or zip tie. This is your sag measurement. Suggested sag measurements are listed in the table below.
10. Add or remove air pressure until your sag measurement is between 15-20% of your forks total travel.
11. Repeat steps 2-8 and recheck sag measurement.
12. When sag measurement is correct, screw the blue air cap on clockwise until snug.
