    Replacing rear wheel/ Adjusting rear sag

    I only ride my RC390 on the street but felt chatter from the stock Metzlers riding hard in Arkansas. I put Bridgestone 020 Evo front and rear. I’ve put rear tires on about 20 different bikes in my life but was unable to get this rear to accept the brake pads. I finally gave up and am riding it...

    Sag numbers

    I'm getting a static sag of 35mm in the front and 15mm in the rear. Rear spring preload is on the 5th setting. Rider sag is 50mm in the front and 35mm in the rear. Rear sag seems about right to me, but front sag definitely seems WAY off. is a static sag of 35mm normal?
