Hi guys, I've had a fork spring conversion kit fitted with a preload adjuster to my Husky which has made it twice the bike it was with air forks tbh. Only thing is I'm having a slight issue with bottoming on big hits like a drop off or a flat land. I like my suspension quite soft and if I add compression to stop the bottoming I find the bike pushes and tucks in corners especially in sandy conditions. I like the way the fork feels right now and its working well, it is also the correct spring rate for my weight.
I'm wondering, would it be wise to add a turn of preload to the fork to try and stop this issue or am I essentially just doing the same as what stiffening the compression would do? I don't touch the preload adjuster at all but I'd guess that if I add preload I'll have to adjust the rebound too.
Cheers
