    Rear tire washing out. Rebound set too fast?

    I have a Float R on my Prophet so the only adjustment I have is Air Pressure and Rebound. I've been noticing if the rear shock compresses when I am turning it tends to wash out a bit. Should i slow my rebound damping?

    Also I am about 245# riding weight and run this shock at 200#'s any suggestions there?
    I resolve PC issues remotely. Need to get rid of all that pr0n you downloaded on your work laptop? Or did you just get a ton of viruses from searching for "geriatic midget sex"? Either way I can fix them. PM Me for maggot prices.

    try it and see,

    also play with R tire pressure, less pressure = larger foot print = more traction (and more flats if you aren't running tubeless)

    Try moving the seat back to get more weight over the rear tire...
    This is the worst pain EVER!
