[QUOTE="Mortenk, post: 1433109, member: 91362"] Hmmm...not sure I agree here. When you increase preload you actually get more spring to work with (you can feel the bike rise as you also state). This should result in a different deflection when you hit a bump - more spring "available" should mean more deflection as far as I see it. I didn't know that preload impacted the damping on the rear. You learn something new every day as they say... [/QUOTE]
