This is more than you would typically run with a Fox air sleeve, AND will still require a substantially higher air pressure than you previously ran. The Vorsprung website has some good info regarding the tuning of these springs: So i have a large volume model (2015) and a small Volume (2013) with a corsette that increases the negative air spring volume. I just want my pedalability back.Ģ013, FLOAT-A E-S, CTD LV Autosag Strut, Specialized, Enduro 29, 8.500, 2.250, 1.1 Spacer, D SBC CM, SBC CMLĭate of manufacture, model, CTD Large Volume (or Small Volume as is my 2015 one) bike it was made for, eye to eye length, stroke length, Spacer size in Cubic Inch, unknown, unknown
#FOX FLOAT RP23 COMPRESSION TUNE VS VOLUME SPACER FULL#
I gave it a fairly hard ride today and while it was using its full travel I never felt a harsh bottom out so I think I've got that dialed. I put 275 in it today so Ill go up to 300 and see how it feels. I don't know if it was one for the enduro or not. Gong to service the shock and play with the settings before I give up on it. I've since gone back to the stock can and whilst it's a little chattery in small fast stuff, it handles climbing and general trail riding so much better than the corset equipped shock could ever do. Is it the enduro specific corset as well? the standard one fits, but they made a specific one which was supposed to help reduce bottoming out. it was nice and plush, but it blew through the travel regardless of pressure (i had up near 300psi before i switched back to the autosag can) The 2015 spec closely resembles what comes up when i put in the ID for my 2016 shock, so i'd argue that's the better one as the 2014 i demo'd was ratshit.Īs for the spacers and corset, you're probably better off with the corset on the 2015 shock as it has a smaller spacer (corset runs ~25% higher pressures typically, so less ramp up required) however my experience with a corset on an Enduro 29 closely matched that of yours.

but buggered if i can decipher them, presumably just says they are a 'custom tune' The last bits refer to the compression and rebound tune i believe. They still ramp up like an air spring should, and you can still add spacers to tune that as you like. You can set an appropriate sag that doesn't have to deal with this initial stroke harshness and as a by product you end up with excellent mid stroke support. The improved cans change this to be more linear. Set it harder to not wallow and you end up with with a super hard initial stroke, set it soft enough to compensate for the super hard starting stroke and you get molasses in the mid stroke. So we set our sag based on that and we end up with it sitting at a pressure somewhere compromising between soft enough to over come the initial harshness of the stroke and having it hard enough not to wallow. Typically what happens with standard can is we set our sag to 20-30 percent of the overall travel of the bike, but the spring rate at the start of the stroke is MUUUUCH higher than the rest of the stroke (untill you get towards the end of the stroke as most people understand). Corset/Debonair/EVOL cans all increase the size of the negative chamber as well as the overall volume of the can.
