Got one on my Heckler, and really don't know if I've set it up right..
I don't seem to be getting a decent amount of travel from it..
Ive the right size spring, but know I'm struggling...

Anyone got a(n) [s]Cruzheckler[/s] idiots guide?

Cheers all.

Where's flow when you need him?

Seriously, zip-tie round the shaft (of the shock 😉 ) to check travel, otherwise damping etc depends on how/what you ride?

I found on mine that it performed better with a softer spring than what was recommended for your weight, on my Heckler for my weight supposed to have been a 450lb but as you say it never used full travel so I went to a 400lb and a Push Tune at TFT made a big difference for me, only ever used one click of pro pedal, best shock for the heckler, 🙂
