How to set my sr suntour preload adjuster to suit my weight, I'm only 45kg. and the red dial makes me confuse.



I'm using XCR Lo.

The preload adjustment allows you to tune the response of the suspension fork as riding conditions demand and in accordance to your weight. The more preload you have, the more thrust it takes to get the fork to first move. The preload is adjusted by turning the preload adjustment knob at the top of the stanchion tube.

Turning the adjustment knob clockwise increases the amount of preload, while turning the knob counterclockwise reduces the preload.

Remember to turn the adjustment knobs first fully counter-clockwise and then count the full turns you make clockwise. Then apply the same number of turns to the other side. Both sides should be equal.

Basically, you want to get as much travel in your fork without having it bottom out.
