    Tried a few settings. Now, I'm running mine dropped down to the 2nd indent from the top on my TE310. Lower than I would normally run the forks on my Katooms, but this bike's a different animal. She turns on a dime and thus far, doesn't misbehave at speeds at this setting. I am using a stabalizer too though, so that helps with the shake at speed you might get with a tighter/shorter rake on yer bike. Most of what I do is 24mph or less though and didn't like the turning characteristics of them being dropped down to the cap.

    I have gone up and down over time and keep coming back to your setting as the best all round position. If I were doing more speed work in sand, with lots of berms etc. I would probably drop them one or two lines in the clamps.

    Started at third line/two spaces from top, was a bit twitchy. Now at second line/one space and liking it. Still turns on a dime.
