Often the issues experienced with the DRCV is they often come coupled with a low BV pressure and light velocity tune, this means the damper really offers very little support and you rely heavily on the spring to prevent excessive travel use which often requires a high spring pressure/rate which greatly affects the sensitivity of the unit. so imagine the DRCV operating like a coil shock in the spring side of things. You need to be careful in getting confused between spring rates and damper progression, the DRCV offers a far more linear rate (at least compared to a regular RP23 with LV aircan). There are a few things that can be done to help prevent the slow air leaks that some shocks suffer from. I would like to add abit about the DRCV system, the concept is pretty good, but it doesn't seem to work as well in practice as on paper. If you are determined to go down the RP23 path I would get the biggest air can that you can and a custom tune to suit. IMO I would work with your Trek dealer in the first instance for tuning advice and maybe a changeover or maybe have the DRCV rebuilt by a suspension expert such as Tekin or NS Dynamics to sort out your issues.

My concern with going to an RP23 (or any other air shock) would be that you may not get full travel as the air spring will ramp up to much towards the end of its travel. If the second stage of the DRCV did not open up you would need a falling rate deeper in the suspension travel to allow the bike to use the full suspension travel. deeper in travel the second part of the chamber gets opened up so the air spring does not ramp up so much - which allows for the slight rising rate. This is a similar leverage curve that you would expect for a coil sprung bike as opposed to air and appears to be consistent with the marketing of the DRCV and how it is supposed to work. What I have done is posted the leverage curve for a 2012 Remedy which may be of some assistance.Д«asically it shows that the Remedy has a slight rising rate for most of its travel and then for all intents and purposes levels out.

When sag measurement is correct, screw the blue air capВ on clockwise until snug.I don't have any direct experience with a Remedy, unless looking at one in a shop counts, but given you haven't received any feedback yet here is my 2c.

Repeat steps 2-8 and recheck sag measurement.

Add or remove air pressureВ until your sag measurement is between 15-20% of your forks total travel.

Suggested sag measurements are listed in the table below.

Measure the distance between the dust wiper and the o-ring or zip tie.

Dismount your bike without bouncing, to avoid further moving the o-ring or zip tie.

While in your riding position, slide the o-ring (or zip tie) down against the fork dust wiper.

Make sure you distribute your weight evenly between the saddle, handlebars and pedals. AssumeВ your riding position for at least 10 seconds, allowing the suspension to fully settle.

Dressed to ride (including a filled hydration pack, if you use one), position your bike next to a wall or table to support yourself.

If you have a TerralogicВ® fork, turn the blue TerralogicВ® threshold adjust knob fully counter-clockwise.

If you have a 3-Position Remote fork, click the black release lever once to set the fork to Open mode.
