I just completed another test ride after adjusting the shock spring preload on my bike. I have now recorded 1,135 miles on the odometer of my Zongshen RX3.

Once again, the shock absorber performed significantly better with a larger spring preload.

However, the shock response is still a little too soft for me. Therefore, I plan to tighten the spring preload yet another 3 turns. However, I am getting very close to the ideal setting.
