Why Suspension 101?

Your suspension is one of the most important parts of your bike — but most riders don’t really know how it works. In this workshop, we simplify the science, break down the key components, and give you the tools to make your bike feel amazing on every ride.

Hands-On Learning

Bring your bike (optional, but highly recommended) and learn to:

  • Set sag correctly

  • Adjust rebound and compression

  • Fine-tune for traction, comfort, and performance

  • Troubleshoot common suspension issues

We’ll use demo components during instruction, then help you apply the principles to your own bike so you leave with practical skills you can use right away.
