4 This booklet is intended as a quick-start reference g uide to help familiarize you with your new Giant full-suspension mountain bike. It is not meant to r eplace the gen eral bicycle owner’s manual or the shock and suspension fork manufactur er’s technical ma nuals that also ca me with your bicycle.
5 Only Giant Glory and Glory DH model bic ycles are e ngineered for use with dual cro wn suspension forks. Use of dual crown suspension forks on any Giant bicycle other tha n these mod els will void the warranty and may result in frame failure , which can cause injury or death.
6 TERMS Bottomed Out: When a rear shock or suspe nsio n fork (herei n after referred to as “shock”) is compressed completely and al l the suspe nsion travel has been used Compression Stroke: T he .
7 SETUP Please refer to the individual shock man ufa cturer’s technical manuals for specific info rma tion on how to adjust the shock on your Giant dual suspension bic ycl e. The shock on your Giant dual suspension bicycle c an be adjusted to meet your ridi ng style and weight.
8 Rebound Damping Rebound damping controls th e rate of speed at whic h the shock returns to its original pos ition after responding to a bump force. Reboun d damping preven ts the shock from springing back too quick l y.
9 1) Inspect all suspension bolts and tighten if necess ary to required torque settings. If unsure, take your bicycle to your Authorized Gia nt Retail er immediately for inspectio n. 2) Do not use high-pressure water sourc es to wash or rinse your bicycle.
10 Glory DH Glory Reign X All coil shock-equipped Giant bic ycles use the same formula to determine “sag” and “rebound damping” (see Basic Terms & Shock setup Overvi ew for definition of sag and rebound dampin g).
11 Maestro-equipped mountain bikes rel y on rear suspension “sag”. Sag (see Basic Terms & Shock Setup Overview on page 6 ) is a critical performance component and is rel ative to the individual rider’s weight. See previous sag setting instructions on pa g e 12 for details.
12 SETTING AND ADJUSTING SAG (Coil Shocks) 1. Turn the spring tension collar counter cl ockwise unt il there is minima l tension on the spring (figure1). 2. With a felt-tip marker, place a dot on the edge of the collar and the sho ck body so you can measure full rotations of the shock collar.
13 3 . Position your bicycle next to a wall so that you c an sit on the bike with both feet on the pedals while steadying yourself with one arm. Gently sit on t he saddle without bouncing. Have a partner measure the eye-to-eye distance while you are seated on the bike (fi gure 1) .
14 6. If you sit on the bike with minimal tension on t he spring and there is less than one quarter of the shock travel, a lighter weight spring is neede d. If yo u turn the shock tension collar three complet e turns and the shock compresses more than a quar ter of t he shock’s travel, a heavier spring is needed.

16 USING A SHOCK PUMP These simple steps will hel p you get the most accura te use of your shock pump and improve the life of your shock pump. 1. When screwing the pump onto the shock do not scr ew it on all the way until it stops. This will damage the seal on the pump and also all ow too much air to escape when you remove the pump.
17 SETTING AND ADJUSTING SAG (Air Shocks) 1. Pump the main air chamber to a psi equal to 100% of rider weight in pounds (2.2lb = 1kg). 2. Push the rubber O-ring that is around the shock shaft all the way against the base of shaft (closest to shock body).

19 (See Basic Terms and Shock Setup Overview for definition of rebou nd damping). 1. If you are unfamiliar with rebound dampin g, perform this procedure: With full body weight, push down on the saddle forcefully to compress th e sho ck. Watch (and fee l) ho w the shock rebounds from compression.
20 To determine your bike’s spec ific front suspe n sion travel adjustments and recommended settings, please refer to the fork manufacturer’s techni cal man ual. A suspension fork is effective at both absorbi ng bump forces and helpi ng t he tire to track the ground for improved traction and braking control.
21 COIL SPRUNG FORKS Springs on these types of forks are set at the factory. Most have a simple preload adjust er that allows the rider to make the fork firmer or softer dependi ng on rider weight. The heavier th e rider , the firmer the spring setting should be.
