" This sort of steepness you can't use your back brake much at all." I can't speak to your experience, but I promise you that the steeper the trail gets, the more I use my rear brake to slow me down.

9/1/2026 10:53pm So ochain or chain device does not change the anti rise effect. Rotor size does not either. Leverage ratio does not change or effect AR. A flip chip on brake arm could change AR. Really just 10mm can change it. I have experiment a bunch with @Vessel_bike_project on this. He made a float brake arm for my V5 and for...

Ditto. I ride and set my bikes up for riding moderately steep to steep trails. I've had bikes with 100%+ (Guerrilla Gravity), a bike with ~50% (Levo Gen 3), and a few with it in the ~60-70% range. That's the sweet spot for me for a constant-ish AR suspension design. Too high, and you pack down the rear over successive hits (like brake bumps). Too low and you've gotta add a bunch of LSC to the fork to counter the pitch forward effect. Somewhere in between strikes a decent balance. Like @CascadeComponents says, one of the nice things about a...

8/24/2026 10:42pm Everyone has a different feel ya know, but not sure why bike weight would require different shaft speeds because we are talking at the axle speeds. It’s more about the ratio of compression to rebound. If you are at similar speeds you might be feeling the different frame construction, bars, wheels or tires.

8/24/2026 7:55am Yes I a similar compression and Reb speeds that I like, no matter what the bike. At least in a window”. But you need to adjust pressures, springs and clickers to get there. Once I get to my window I fine tune adjust. Sag is the one that can be most different and doesn’t cross over from frame to frame

8/24/2026 7:51am Personally I like AR around 60-70%. To me this number is before it “lifts” but stays active. If I rode steeper trails like in Europe, the higher AR would be more ideal.

7/16/2026 11:02pm It will definitely help riders get closer to setup. That will be great but it will still be different than fork/shock data.

7/7/2026 8:12am I’m not sure, check your app. Go to “share with another” user and see if you can save to “files” on your phone. Let me know!

7/3/2026 11:42pm I can flip the colors if it helps you. 😅 I just read the top as comp and the bottom rebound no matter what the color is. I’m going to try some testing this weekend and put the app through its paces. is anyone on here still using Motion instruments and want me to make this public? It just runs...

7/2/2026 10:49pm It’s definitely just a tool and depends how you use it. Hopefully these riders test in the off season and everyone finds baselines. Using data in my opinion can speed up the suspension setup process so much The way I use it for testing different bikes and parts, is that I know my general speeds comp/reb that give me the...

7/2/2026 11:01am Yeah I saw this also. And in this thread is definitely leaning on the side of DAQ, but there’s some people out there who don’t like it and that’s Ok. Jordi in all the Fox videos never seemed to care for Daq. It’s ok, personally I know the benefits, it helps me and my friends. I know you can get...

6/28/2026 5:55pm I don't know if I could put a number on it for how long. But yeah, I think if you worked on it for 5 days and had some background in setup and bike mechanic skills, you can figure it out. BYB is prob the most user-friendly to start with. The hardest part is mounting sensors and the linkage ratio...

6/26/2026 8:16am You can pick your threshold of where you want it to split for me. It’s between 250-350 MMS. it’s just the average speed below that number and above that number. it’s not perfect, but it gives you something to tune off and compare run to run. The low speed on most suspension will also change the high speed. But it’s...

6/26/2026 8:11am Yeah, it’s definitely hard to calculate on those‘s metrics like rider feedback and pitch, it’s just something that I’m going to try and see how it translates when I’m actually riding. See if it gives me anything. I’ve kind of made that so I can feel those values on my bike and then when I’m helping a friend who doesn’t...

6/26/2026 7:18am Thanks! Yeah, I was just trying to make it more simple and quick to read. I typically use this data either when we are doing shuttle runs or at the bike park. So how can I read it and do adjustments quick for the next run, so everyone I’m with doesn’t have to wait. Hahaha. Here’s another screen grab. I’ll...

6/25/2026 9:57pm Definitely agree about comparing data. I’ve heard there is even variance between the same systems and using different potentiometers. I’ve been working on my own app for MotionIQ data. I made the trimming of the run faster and also a page for comparing 2 runs. Trying some new things with “feedback to rider” also.

I strongly suggest that people are very careful when comparing the numbers between different telemetry systems, especially with the homegrown ones. Relatively minor filtering/grouping/binning changes lead to very different speeds and graphs and there isn't a "true" one. For example there can be a big difference what "average" speed is, depending on how is it calculated. My app supports both the MotionIQ way - stroke-peak averaged, which counts each stroke once by peak velocity and peak travel and what I believe is the BYB way - sample averaged, which counts every sample inside compression and rebound strokes. The stroke-peak averaged...
