Changing the Pinion Gear/Gear Ratio Before you change the pinion gear ask yourself why you are doing it. In general, if you change to a larger pinion the wheel speed will increase but you will see less acceleration and run time. This would only be advisable for low traction climbs. Changing to a smaller pinion will give you quicker acceleration and possibly a bit longer run time but a little less wheel speed. This would be good for high traction rock climbs.

Rebuilding/Refilling the Shocks Step 2 Turn the shock upside down and remove the black shock cartridge/shaft assembly from the shock body by turning it counterclockwise. Step 1 After removing the shock, push up on the lower spring cup and remove it from the shaft. Remove the spring and preload spacers. Note: If you only wish to change or fill the shock fluid, skip to step 5. Step 3 Remove the top E-clip from the shock shaft. Remove the shock piston. Remove second E-clip. Remove the old cartridge.
