Suntour suspension fork
9.1.7.1 Rebound too fast
The suspension fork rebounds too quickly,
producing a "pogo stick" effect, where the wheel
lifts from the ground in an uncontrolled way. This
impairs traction and control (blue line).
Figure 211: Suspension fork rebounding too quickly
Solution
Figure 212: Suntour rebound screw (1)
Turn rebound screw in a clockwise direction.
The rebound speed is decreased (slower
return).
Troubleshooting, fault clearance and repair
Fork crown and handlebars are deflected
upwards if the wheel bounces back from the
ground. Body weight may be thrown up and
back in an uncontrolled way (green line).
