I would like some advice on tuning my Talas.

I weigh 11 stones flat and ride rough ground.

I would like a very supple fork but still be able to soak big bumps. My model is RL and is an 08. So, what pressure do you guys and girls suggest?

At the moment I run 75psi but I think my fork to rigid. I know to drop pressure but to what? I don't want to bottom them out!

Thank you muchly.

Go by sag. I would suggest 30% sag at full travel so if you have a 140 set the pressure to allow 40mm give or take. That's with you and your gear sitting on the bike. Or you can simply tajke a pump along for a ride and play with it making 5 psi changes initially to find what feels best for you.
