Hi,

On one or two occasions recently my bike bottomed out on me. Decided to set the rear shock but first did a test.

Set the preload adjuster to 1 and tested the rear suspension by pushing down on the rear carrier a couple of times, then adjusted it to 5 and did the same.

Should there be a huge, noticeable difference between the two setting?
Mine did not seem to make much difference between 1 and 5.
