2009 Fox Racing Shox Owner's Manual - Bike-Components

• OPEN
• PROPEDAL
Use each setting to adjust the shock for different riding conditions and situations. For example,
use PROPEDAL for riding to the top of the mountain, and then switch to OPEN for the descent.
To determine which ProPedal position is better for your condition and situation, pedal the bicycle
and monitor the shock movement. Switch between positions and select the one that reduces
suspension movement most effectively while providing the desired amount of bump
absorption.
Because suspension designs and riding skills vary, optimal settings can vary from bike to bike
and rider to rider. For more precise ProPedal tuning and to further eliminate pedal-induced
bob while maintaining bump compliance, adjust the ProPedal knob. As with the ProPedal lever,
switch positions and select a setting that reduces suspension movement most effectively while
providing the desired amount of bump absorption.
ProPedal Knob
The 3-position ProPedal knob (shown below) allows you to adjust ProPedal firmness when the
ProPedal lever is in the PROPEDAL position. The ProPedal knob only changes damping when
the ProPedal lever is in the PROPEDAL position.
The ProPedal knob settings are denoted by the numbers etched onto the ProPedal knob. The
three ProPedal knob settings are:
• (1) PROPEDAL Light
• (2) PROPEDAL Medium
• (3) PROPEDAL Firm
