I then went down a little but went to the outside hole on the arm which I really liked. Again though, I wanted to go more but was afraid of going too far as at that point we were into the heads up racing
The 416 is a 2.25mm bottom deck, so you'd expect the TOP to be a little stiffer but I can barely tell the difference when I bend them by hand. I also heard a rumour there is a "super flex" 2mm bottom deck for Photon in the works???
Question, is changing the shock mounting position on the arm the same as doing it on the tower, or does the movement of the arm effect the net result?
I've been running hole 1 on the front arm and 2 at the back and it felt better right away than 2 on both. I think the front shocks are a little too angled at the moment so I'm going 1 hole more upright on the tower for Sunday
