Most suspension complaints are setup, not hardware. Work down this list and a lot of riders never reach stage three.
Set your sag
Free, one eveningNothing on this page will help until the suspension is set for your weight. Sag is the single biggest change you can make and it costs nothing — roughly a third of total travel with you on the bike in riding gear.
- Cost NOTHING
- Time 30 MINUTES
- Tools TAPE MEASURE
- Do it FIRST
In this tier: Preload adjustment
Read the guideSprings and oil
Correct the rateIf sag is right and the bike still wallows or blows through its travel, the spring rate is wrong for you. A spring is far cheaper than a fork, and heavier or lighter riders than the design target almost always need one.
- Cost $40 TO $150
- Time 2 HOURS
- Skill MODERATE
- Do it SECOND

New hardwareAdjustable cartridge forks and rebuildable rear shocks. Real damping control, real money, and worth it only once the setup underneath is right.

Shop suspensionSuspension is frame-specific
Eye-to-eye length, stroke, mount width and stanchion diameter all vary. Filter to your bike — a shock that is 10 mm too long changes the geometry of the whole bike.
Find parts for my bikeSuspension, in plain English
Sag
How far the bike settles under your weight. Too little sag and the wheel skips over bumps; too much and it blows through the travel and bottoms out. Set this before touching a clicker.
Compression
Compression damping controls how fast the suspension moves down. It does not hold the bike up — the spring does that. Riders who dial in compression to stop bottoming are usually fixing a spring problem the hard way.
Rebound
Rebound controls how fast it comes back. Too slow and the suspension packs down over successive hits until it has no travel left; too fast and the bike bucks you. Set it so the wheel returns quickly without kicking.
Spring rate
Spring rate is chosen for the rider. Manufacturers spec for an average, so if you are well under or over that, no amount of clicker adjustment will fix it — you need a different spring.

About Suspension
Most electric dirt bikes leave the factory set up for nobody: stock clickers, stock preload, and a rider who never checked either. Suspension is the upgrade people do last and wish they had done first.
Front. A cartridge kit replaces the damper-rod internals of the Light Bee X fork with a real cartridge: 24 clicks of compression, valved for riders between 130 and 220 lb. Rear. A piggyback shock with rebound and preload adjustment and a spring rate you can actually match to your weight, 265 mm eye to eye for the Light Bee X.
Set sag first, clickers second. The setup-by-rider-weight guide gives starting points, and every part here shows which bikes it is verified for.
