There's no such thing as a Sherman Stance. Either you have a Sherman or a Stance.

With that said, from my experience with my Sherman Slider + the springs that come stock on it are very soft. A pretty easy and quick fix should be finding stiffer springs.

I don't know what adjustments the Stance has, but if you have a Sherman with SPV-E, you should be able to adjust the SPV Air Pressure and Volume, which essentially allows for a stiffer ride and more bottoming out resistance.

You don't change oil to make a fork "stiffer". You change oil to slow down the compression and rebound.
Oh yeah oops, dont know what I was thinking there.:madman: :rolleyes:

Yeah my friend has the same fork and he has the same problem so I would suggest just getting stiffer springs.
