Rockshox air pressure question
Discussion
If finally caved and got a set of Reba rl's (2012 model as Crc had them at a silly price and I was sitting in a discount code). Just read the instructions for them and can't believe the air pressure of 120 - 135 psi for my weight.
I'm 90 kgs (190ish pounds), and currently got them pumped to 120 psi. Can anyone offer thoughts on if this would be sufficient please or s better weight to air reference.

Use the guide then try a ride out. I pumped mine up using the guide, quick run round the dog at Cannock and found I was MM away from bottoming the suspension out. It would definetly bottom out on the monkey and black options. Raised it the pressure by another 10 psi which works fine for me.
You're just going to have to ride out and play with the pressure to find what suits you.

similar scenario for me;
RockShox SID RLT fork, 90KG weigght (working on getting it down tho!)
same PSI as yours;
I set it to the low end of the spec and went for a ride in the local woods;
the O ring on the slider showed me I was using about 75-80% travel max - which to me is about right - on the safe side I recon.
Best method to set the pressure I think
