Hey,
I'd like to rearrange the shims in my fork, and I need some help.
Stock shim stacks in my fork (2005 Dorado TPC+) are as follows.
Rebound:
15mm x 0.1mm
15mm x 0.1mm
16mm x 0.1mm
17.7mm x 0.1mm
17.7mm x 0.1mm
11mm x 0.1mm
20mm x 0.1mm
20mm x 0.1mm
Sliding piston (all are 0.1mm thick):
16mm
16mm
18.6mm
19.1mm
19.1mm
19.1mm
20mm
20mm
20mm
20mm
Fixed piston (all are 0.1mm thick):
17.7mm
19.1mm
20mm
20mm
20mm
I don't have any spare shims, so I can use only those stock ones, but I'd like to have less HSC (take some shims out?), less rebound damping (take some shims out of the rebound stack as well?) and more LSC (add those shims which I took out of the HSC and rebound?).
Anyone can help me with that? Which shims should I remove, which should I add and where to add them?
In short - what to do in order to have more lsc, less hsc and less rebound, without having to buy different shims?
