I have some suggestions for using the CCS forks. It was’t until I installed the Bodyfloat seatpost that I could tell if I was being kicked by the handlebars or the seat. The Bodyfloat is great.
On the right stanchion the indicator should be in the OPEN position to allow maximum suspension effect. I attached a cable tie to the stanchion to measure the travel. Slide the tie down to the seal before riding. I measured 47mm. About 12mm is sag so I got 35mm travel while riding. If you move the indicator to LOCKED then all of the impact will be transferred to your wrists.
On the left stanchion, the adjustment dial should be turned all the way CCW. This will allow maximum travel. Before you can make this adjustment, you have to remove the cover. I use a thin flat blade screwdriver to slip under the cover and pry it up. A large screwdriver or large coin can be used to turn the dial.
With these adjustments I have a very comfortable ride.
