Hi there,
I recently purchased a 2020 Trek Remedy 8 XT and have a question regarding the rear suspension. I noticed that there is some movement even when the switch is in the lockout position. It does become slightly firmer for small movements. But when a carefully sit on the bike or when I push with force down into
the pedals, the suspension travels about as much in the locked position as it does in the open position. Is this behavior normal? I set up the suspension according to the Trek guide.
I've already asked the customer support of Trek as well as my bike dealer. The former said that a little movement (whatever the means, exactly) is normal in modern suspensions, while the latter said that the suspension should not move at all. The Rockshox manual says that the "lockout setting prevents the shock from compressing until significant impact or downward force occurs".
Can any of you with a Remedy 8 tell me how your rear suspension behaves in the lockout position?
Thanks a lot in advance!
