We all have them, well everyone except for the vintage guys, but what do they do and when should I turn them?

All modern forks and shocks have Compression and Rebound adjustment. All shocks additionally have spring preload adjustability and even some conventional forks used for Dirt- Track bikes will have adjustable spring preload. So you vintage guys who are not totally vintage might get something out of this tech tip.

Here is your basic rule of race. If the track is fast and smooth, you and your bike should be too. Therefore, a stiffer, slower set up will help you as a rider to be smooth. If the track is rough, you want the suspension to be softer and move quicker over the bumps.
