—
We awoke Sunday morning to blue skies, yellow leaves and cool fall weather. What more could you ask for from a late October day? Our crew was eager to get to the parking lot and suit up so that they could show us the trails that they love to rip on all summer long.

| DropOut Options | Maxle | |
| Compression | no adjustment |
Compression - This is the damping circuit that absorbs the compression energy force on the damper. Compression damping is used to adjust how quickly a fork or rear shock compresses when hitting a bump, and is adjustable on some products. When compression damping is too soft, this condition allows most of the available travel to be used without attaining control of the wheel. When it's adjusted too firmly, the wheel will jump or "dance" about when hitting small bumps, again failing to gain control of the wheel.
