Crest Lite Suspension

Custom travel, air pressure and adjustment controls made specifically for lighter weight riders to deliver maximum confidence and control.

Designed to function with minimal activating force and smooth performance over rugged terrain, giving lighter weight riders the same high-performance feel as adult suspension setups.

Fork and shock setup and adjustment made easy. With clear instructions including pressure and rebound recommendations printed on the fork, Crest Lite gets young rippers out on the trail with just a few clicks.

Step 1

Weigh the rider.

Step 2

Locate the setup guide on the fork leg for the optimal air pressure setting for both fork and shock according to rider weight.

STEP 3

Get the rider on the bike. Holding the bike in place, bounce up and down on the suspension a few times. Reset the rubber O-rings on the fork and shock back to the fork lower and shock air canister. Again holding the bike in place, have the rider sit down gently on the saddle in a natural riding position to check sag (the amount of space on the shock from the air canister to the rubber O-ring and on the fork from the lower to the rubber O-ring) according to the air pressure setting from step 2. To begin, sag should generally sit at about 25% of the travel of the shock and fork, as measured by the position of the rubber O-ring relative to the shock air canister and fork lower. Continue adjusting air pressure in both fork and shock until sag reaches about 25% of travel.

STEP 4

Adjust fork and shock rebound by the number of clicks referenced in the setup guide on the fork. Always use the slowest rebound position as the base, then click out from there.

STEP 5

Refine sag and rebound depending on the rider’s feel or riding style and the terrain.

STEP 6

Go shred!
