Takes into account rider's weight/model and recommends shock PSI

Trek launches suspension optimisation calculator

Trek has added a module to its website that allows owners of suspension-equipped Trek bikes to accurately calculate their optimal suspension settings.

Taking into account the rider’s weight and chosen bike, the calculator delivers a recommendation for both front and rear suspension. What’s more, Trek’s website is mobile compatible, so although it’s not an app as yet, users can sign right in via their smart phones.

The application is also capable of recommending springs for coil shocks, as well as advising on rebound and compression settings.
