Staff Expert Tip: To truly unlock the potential of those YZ-style piggyback shocks, don’t just leave them on the factory settings; take ten minutes to click the high and low-speed compression adjusters based on your specific weight and local trail conditions in the Adirondacks. It completely transforms the machine from a trail-tamer into a race-ready rocket.
