How do I adjust the suspension on my COMMENCAL bike? |
 |
Before riding your bike for the first time, it is important to do the following steps for adjusting your rear shock correctly:
1. Push up the O-ring at the inner shaft against the outer shaft.
2. Stand up on your pedals in a riding position.
3. Carefully get off your bike.
4. Check the position of the O-ring* on the inner shaft.
5. Next you need a high pressure pump (purchased separately) to adjust the air pressure in your shock.
6. Reset the O-ring and get back on your bike.
7. Get off the bike and check the position of the O-ring again.
8. Repeat until you find the right setting.
* The O-ring must be at about 25–30% of the shock's hub, so that the SAG setting is optimal. For DH and alpine descents it should be 30–40%.
To adjust your fork, refer to the manufacturers guidelines. If in doubt, do not hesitate to contact us.
You can also watch our video tutorial on adjusting suspension.

How do I set-up air suspension on my bike? |
 |
When you get on your bike for the first time, please follow those steps for the most accurate set-up:
1. Get the O-ring against the shaft.
2. Get on the bike while standing on the pedals (don’t bounce around, just get in riding position).
3. Get off the bike.
4. Note where the O-ring is compare to the whole travel. The O-ring has to travel 15 to 30% for optimized SAG. For DH bikes, it has to be 30 to 40%
5. If you need to adjust the air in your suspension, get a shock pump (sold separately): add air if you need the O-ring to travel less or remove air if you have not enough SAG and repeat previous steps until you get the correct SAG.
Here you go, your suspension is now set up correctly

What size bike should I order? |
 |
Before buying a bike, it’s important that you know which size you need.
Please refer to the Sizing Chart or Sizes tab under every main picture on the product pages for our frame size recommendations.
It may happen that you are in-between sizes. In this case, you may want to check out the inseam size to help you decide what is more appropriate.
Generally, a shorter frame will be more nimble and easier to handle while a longer frame will offer more stability and control at higher speeds.
If you choose a longer frame, you still can adjust your riding position by changing your saddle position and the length of your stem.
