Re: Fork air gap
Hi. According to the info I have. The measurement is 221 mm, which I read as the air gap.
This should be equal to 227ml.
I set mine at that with the springs out and the suspension compressed. I did a write up for the newsletter a while ago. But that might have been on the old forum.
