Air psi for 5th Element?

**otter** · 05-15-2007, 09:24 PM

What should I have my air at for my 5th Element? I am 200 pounds. I think it is at 50 right now. Do I need to pump it up a little?

Show me your bartlett photos and I'll tell you

Kidwoo, I will get my ass in gear and size some of those up tomorow. Let you see the rest of the goods. When do you think me might cross paths again. I would love to hook up with you and karl and shoot some more.

Otter,

Yeti says with the ASX you use less pressure than with the 5th on most bikes. I ran it at 75psi for trail riding and 100 for I-Street (it gives you the extra pop to hit lefty #2 backwards

).

Anyhizzle, for you I wouldn't go above 90, and I'd bet 75-80 is good. It was amazing how much more plush it rode with less pressure. Ask Mr. Altagirl what he used to run.

Also, I'd run 30-50 on the front.

J-

PS:

, I forgot to send you a receipt. Do you still need it? If you want to draft one up I'll "sign it," if you know what I mean. Wink wink, nudge nudge.

My wife actually wants to take a trip out to Taho just for fun. What kind of stuff is there to shoot out there? We could kill two birds with one stone.

I believe the manual says 50%-70% of body weight.

edit: from coil manual.

I've played with it for two weeks to get it right... now that I found the sweet spot I love it (was considering getting rid of it until then though). Stick with it, works great once dialed!
