SUSPENSION SETTINGS

The META SX V5 is made to be ridden hard. From bike parks to secret trails, it stays firmly on track and offers serious grip. Ideal for riders seeking a mountain bike that feels as close to a downhill bike as it gets.

Below you will find the recommended suspension settings chart based on your level and the build of your META SX V5.

These recommendations are indeed recommendations.The best settings are the ones where you feel most comfortable on the bike.

I’m new to the sport, but I’m starting to feel comfortable on less technical trails.

I’m not looking to go fast, but I can maintain momentum over rocks and roots.

I ride regularly and feel comfortable on most trails, even technical or steep ones.

I can carry speed through berms and handle medium jumps, drops, or wooden features.

I can ride fast and smooth on all trails, regardless of difficulty.

I’m active on the bike, jumping with style and precision, pushing through corners, and always looking to build speed.
