Hey all, I just got a SB165 and want feedback on my shock setup. This is my first coil and first shock with HSR and HSC adjustments.
I've tried to do my research and learn how to set it up. I also used yeti's setup calculator and the fork felt great right away but the rear felt like a slow pogo stick and used the travel very easily but never felt a harsh bottom out. I've made some adjustments a feel pretty happy with it, but wouldn't mind hearing what people are doing as well.
I'm 178lbs geared up.
Yeti's suggestion --> My setup 475lb spring --> 475lb spring with 9 clicks preload for 30% sag HSC 5 clicks --> HSC 4 clicks LSC 9 to 11 clicks. --> LSC 8 clicks HSR 4 clicks --> 5 clicks LSR 11 to 13 clicks --> 14 clicks

Ohlins- 500 lb way to stiff, pogo stick feel, eject button, made that bike feel short travel Fox DHX2 450Lb - nice plush feel Ohlins- 411 lb coil spring, BUTTER
Try the 450 or 400. I changed over to the Ohlins TTXM-22 because the DHX2 had to go to warranty. Th 450lb fox spring was pretty dam good in my opinion.
