4.3 Rebound Adjustment

Reboundamping controls how quickly the fork extends after compression. The rebound knob is typically located at the bottom of one of the lower legs.

• Turn the red rebound knob towards the 'rabbit' symbol for faster rebound (less damping).
• Turn the red rebound knob towards the 'turtle' symbol for slower rebound (more damping).
• Adjust to prevent harsh top-out or packing down on successive bumps.

4.4 Compression Adjustment (Motion Control Dampeh)

The Motion Control damper allows for low-speed compression adjustment, affecting how the fork compresses under rider input and small bumps.

• The blue lever on the top of the right fork leg controls the compression.
• Turn the lever clockwise to increase compression damping (firmer feel, closer to lockout).
• Turn the lever counter-clockwise to decrease compression damping (softer feel, more active).
• Use the lockout feature for climbing or smooth terrain to maximize pedaling efficiency.

5. Operating Your Fork

Once installed and set up, your RockShox Recon Silver RL fork is ready for use. Understanding its features will help you optimize your ride.

• Posisi Berkendara: Maintain a balanced riding position to allow the fork to absorb impacts effectively.

6. Pemeliharaan

Regular maintenance extends the life and performance of your suspension fork. Adhere to the following guidelines:

• Clean After Every Ride: Wipe down the stanchions and seals with a clean, damp cloth after each ride to remove dirt and debris. Avoid high-pressure washing directly at seals.
• Lubricate Stanchions: Apply a small amount of suspension-specific lubricant to the stanchions periodically, then cycle the fork a few times and wipe off excess.
• Periksa Kerusakan: Regularly check for scratches on stanchions, cracks in the crown or lower legs, and any signs of oil leakage around the seals.
• Lower Leg Service: RockShox recommends a lower leg service every 50 hours of riding or annually, whichever comes first. This involves cleaning, inspecting, and replacing bath oil and foam rings.
• Full Service: A complete overhaul of the fork, including air spring and damper service, is recommended every 200 hours or biennially. This should ideally be performed by a certified service center.
• Periksa Pengencang: Periodically check all bolts (axle, brake caliper, stem) for proper torque.
