Hiya Chaps,
I've got a X2 on my Insurgent, been playing with pressures and volume spacers for a bit, and can't quite get it plush and not bottom out.
Anyone running an Evil with an X2, if so - what's your base pressure and volume spacers for your weight?
I'm at 155psi, 3 bands and 160lb....
Cheers

Pretty similar.
155lb
3 spacers
148psi / 30% sag when sat on saddle
I used a ShockWiz on Friday and it had me speed up LSC/HSC/LSR/HSR which made the shock handle the chatter a lot better. It also doesn’t bottom out as much anymore.
Cheers Milkie, sounds like I'm in the right Ballpark!
When you say 'speed-up', do you mean you took off rebound and compression damping? Or added?
Generally, speeding up would be removing damping - which for HSC would make it bottom out more.
I'd be super keen to steal your settings if you can pop me your settings - happy to pass some beer tokens!
My shock was packing down over the rough stuff. I sped up rebound and made the compression harder.
Here’s my X2 settings:
148psi
HSC 8 Clicks Clockwise
HSR 5
LSR 6
LSC 8
Ha, I'm at...
155psi
HSC 8 Clicks Clockwise
HSR 6
LSR 3
LSC 4
So not far off from you! Brilliant. Feel like I'm on the right track now.
