    Ktec recommend 13-15mm static sag rear and 20-25 front.

    Hi Craig , I got same advice from Ktech , but I find it all hard to understand really , most suspension guys will set your suspension for road use 35mm rear ( diff between unloaded then with rider on kitted up) and 40mm for front , what I find to understand is one bike with same front forks and rear shock surely needs diff sag settings for say , one guy that weighs 15 st kit on , to another that weighs 11st kit on , so how can you set a bike up on static sag , its like one setting suits all ?????????

    I reckon K-tech are assuming you have the right spring fitted for your weight not the stock spring.
