How to change the front suspension settings of an Alpha 7
Front Fork Assembly
The front fork assembly is documented in detail in the technical drawing DF_DFXL02_FF_AA000, which provides a comprehensive exploded view of all components and their relationships. This drawing serves as your primary reference for assembly and maintenance work.
Suspension Settings
The front suspension can be adjusted to match your riding style and preferences. The standard configuration uses six elastomer pieces and two plastic spacers, which provides an optimal balance of comfort and stability for most riders.
For a firmer suspension setting, particularly beneficial at higher speeds, you can modify the arrangement to use five elastomer pieces and four plastic spacers. This configuration reduces suspension movement and provides more stability at speed.
Maintenance Access
When servicing the front suspension, there are two methods to access the components. While you can remove the upper bolt, this approach risks scratching the paint. The recommended method is to access the suspension from below, which protects the finish while allowing full maintenance access.
Component Availability
Replacement parts, including elastomers and plastic spacers, are included with your velomobile at delivery. Additional components can be ordered through authorized dealers in the dealer network.
