13 Suspension ame and suspension

elements

13.1 Frame with rear suspension

If you wish to ride ooad in a particularly sporty manner

or with a high degree of comfort, you may have opted for a

ll-suspension model. In this case, the rear triangle of the

main ame is not rigid; instead it can move and is spring

mounted and damped by a shock absorber.

Full-suspension ame

Dierent types of suspension elements are used. These

are mainly shock absorbers equipped with a steel spring

or an air chamber whose air is compressed due to the

action of the suspension. In high-quality shock absorbers,

the damping action, that regulates the speed of compres-

sion and rebound, can be adjusted. This task is performed

by a system of oil chambers and ducts.

Although this type of shock absorber oers a higher de-

gree of riding safety and comfort, it requires special han-

dling. This User Manual contains only general information

in this regard. Detailed information and advice is provided

in the instructions om the shock absorber manufacturer

enclosed with the CD and can also be obtained om your

specialist cycle shop.

The website of the relevant suspension element

manufacturer may also prove to be a valuable source

of information. Informative and helpl links are pro-

vided in ➠ Chapter 29 "Link list".

Your specialist cycle shop should have adjusted the sus-

pension for you before handing over your new bike. Your

bike and the seat position may look dierent to what you

are used to, and may also feel dierent when you are rid-

ing. The spring strut must be tuned so that it has a so

response, but does not strike through if you ride over an

obstruction. It must give slightly when you sit on your

bike.

13.2 Care and maintenance

You can clean your ll-suspension MTB in the usual man-

ner. Hot water with a little washing-up liquid or a gentle

detergent which you can obtain om your specialist cycle

shop are suitable for this.

You should avoid using a high-pressure cleaner to

clean your bike as the cleaning uid can also enter

sealed bearings due to the high pressure and damage

them beyond repair.

You should carelly wipe down the piston of the shock ab-

sorber and the seal with a so cloth as part of your regular

bike maintenance. If you spray a little spray oil, e.g. om

Brunox, on the running surface of the shock absorber and

the seal, this increases its performance and service life.

You should regularly check the articulations of the rear

triangle for play. To do this, li the wheel and try to move

the rear wheel sideways.

You can detect play in the mounting bushes of the shock

absorber by liing the rear wheel up and setting it back

down quickly. If you sense play or hear a rattling noise,

have your bike checked immediately by a professional

bike workshop.

Your safety depends to a large extent on whether the

suspension elements are securely fastened and are

working correctly. You should therefore regularly look

aer and inspect your ll-suspension bike.

›Tighten all screws to the prescribed torque as

otherwise screws could shear o and compo-

nents could come loose or detach altogether (see

➠ Chapter 30 "Technical data").
