Just started setting up a DPX2 and have a couple Q's
1- 180lbs rider, sag measurements left me with approx 160psi - seems low to me considering fox rebound suggestions.
2 - Low-Speed Compression damping - have an idea what it's for - but can someone give me a rough guess where it should be ideally set and why

I know this is vauge, and suspension is a personal setting but want somewhere to start with it.

Thank for any help

Seems lite on pressure but not absurd, make sure you have all dampening is off to check sag. An initial sag is used just as a base point you very well may mix things up as you adjust everything else and based on how you feel on the trail.

I like to think of low speed damping as more body input, pedal input, and g out. So add more if you feel the shock is sagging into its travel to much when you are pedaling, shifting your weight around for getting over large rocks etc, or when railing berms with high G forces.
