hey guys

I'm also unsure of how should I set my new ATA wc. I read the manual and did everything they said abotu the air pressure

Actually, I have 110 psi in the PAR cahmber and 70 psi in the ATA chamber, I wheigh 146 lbs.

but I dunno how to adjust the RC3 side, how many clicks for the air volume travel and cliks for the low speed compression. and.. what about this:

''The air valve on the RC3 side should not be used for calibration.
It should be used for pressure relief in the damping side that
can accumulate during the use in the fork leg.''

Did anyone find this valve?

Well it would be nice if every ATA wc's owner write down how they adjust their forks

I start

Frame: flatline
Weight: 146 lbs
PAR: 110 psi
ATA: 70 psi
Air volume travel (RC3 side): about 8-9 clicks
low speed compression: 4 clicks
rebound: 4 clicks

As it is now, I have like 30% sag, but it's not soo plush and it get stiffer quiclky and it reachs 6.5 inches of travel

thank for the help

anyone??, oh and I dropped my PAR pressure to 80 psi and it feels better, but the guide recommend to put in the PAR at least 15 psi higer than the ATA chamber, and some say at least 30 psi higer.

yea right, the 888 ata wc is kinda different, take a look to the RC3 top cap, it has rebound and air travel volume adjustment
