setting preload
Hi guys,
OK so I've had my bike for a while* and shamefully I'm only asking this question now.
I weight about 86kg in gear so I haven't bothered to set the preload – as I understand it, I'm pretty much on the money for the default weight.
I get that you need to measure the difference between the bottom edge of the slider tube and the axle.
What I'm not sure of is how this measurement correlates to the type of adjustment I need to make (i.e. how many turns left or right).
Any input would be appreciated.
* my bike's got DDC.
