bit of advice please, i use a spec crosstrail for my work commute and mostly have the front suspension locked out, today i have been fiddling with the bike while off work.....
adjusted my seat position and altered a few other settings after reading plenty of threads on here - some great advice, much better than a manual...
anyway i was taking a closer look at the front suspension which I must admit i have not really bothered with before, just locked out mostly...
my questions:
1. do you have to lock out the suspension at full height or can you lean on the front to lower it a little then lock out? hope this makes sense... if you can do this what would be the benefits or where would it come in handy?
2. not sure what the pressure dial is actually doing, it doesn't seem to make any difference if i turn to + or - am i doing somthing wrong and in fact do i need to be adjusting it at all?
Cheers
