In this video I walk through the Rocky Mountain e-bike setup change that completely flipped how the bike rode for me. The whole point is to get the suspension working in the real world—support when you’re pushing into the bike, traction when it’s chattery, and control when the speed (and the e-bike weight) starts compounding mistakes. I’m not here to copy a chart and call it “dialed.” I’m here to make it ride better, period. I focus on the practical stuff that actually moves the needle on an e-MTB: how the extra mass changes spring rate needs, how damping settings can feel “fine” in the parking lot but fall apart on trail, and how small setup changes can make the bike feel calmer, more planted, and way less fatiguing. If you’ve been fighting harshness, wallow, or that vague front/rear balance that makes an e-bike feel like it’s driving you instead of the other way around, this is the kind of setup approach I use to troubleshoot it and get back to a predictable, grippy ride.
