Is there an easy way to Add Motion Control (or Low speed Comp of any sort) Liking how the fork feels on my new Pitch. Aside from excessive diving, under braking and pedaling. Right now I am leaving the Compression lock out slightly on. To help, however that kinda makes the fork feel bit dead for traction. Sag is ok, and I don't bottom it hard. So I think the spring is about right (I am 150 lbs, spring is stock). Bike is being used for everything short of DH. Intermediate DH racer, style.

Any help on what parts to get or simple mods to try. I am all right with a wrench. And not afraid to mess around with stuff trying things. Just new to Rock Shox and the Pike. Haven't opened her up yet, still looking for a layout drawing.

Thanks,
Tom

there is no real way of tuning the motion control on a pike i have run many variations of different internals in them, i would advise you to upgrade the spring to a firm spring and change the oil in the damping side down to 2.5w to ensure small bump sensitivity you have to realise that the damping is fairly basic to, if you want to improve traction then i would get a pushed rebound damper so that you have a 2 stage rebound on the fork
