How it compares
At 150 mm, fork travel is 10 mm shorter than the median of the “all-mountain bike” category (160 mm, 15 bikes). Travel is the same front and rear at 150 mm each. Within R Raymon’s mountain bikes, it sits between the R Raymon Yara 120 and the R Raymon Rokua 170 on travel. R Raymon builds the frame from aluminium.
Fork and shock come from RockShox on every build. The fork line-up ranges from the RockShox 35 Silver TK to the RockShox 35 Gold.
Setup notes for this spec
- Air fork (RockShox 35 Silver TK): the air valve is on top of the left leg under a cap. Change pressure in small steps (about 5 psi (0.34 bar)) and cycle the fork a few times afterwards so the air chambers can equalise.
- Rebound: turn the red RockShox adjuster fully closed first and count clicks from there – that way you can note settings and restore them later.
- Air shock (RockShox Deluxe Select): measure SAG in your riding position, ideally with a helper holding the bike. Cycle the shock a few times after every pressure change.
Target SAG for the R Raymon Yara 150
The table converts the recommended SAG percentages into millimetres, so you can check them with the O-ring directly on the stanchion and on the shock shaft. Adjust the air pressure until the value is right. If R Raymon specifies its own target SAG for your model, that takes priority.
150 mm fork, 50.0 mm shock stroke (all builds)
| Riding style | Fork SAG | Shock SAG |
|---|---|---|
| XC / touring | 17 % = 26 mm | 24 % = 12.0 mm on the shock shaft |
| Trail | 20 % = 30 mm | 28 % = 14.0 mm on the shock shaft |
| Enduro / rough | 22 % = 33 mm | 30 % = 15.0 mm on the shock shaft |
| Bike park | 20 % = 30 mm | 27 % = 13.5 mm on the shock shaft |
How to measure SAG is explained in our guide SAG setup.
Tyre pressure starting values
For 2.40″ wide tyres, tubeless with a trail casing. With an inner tube about 0.2 bar (2.9 psi) more, with an insert about 0.1 bar (1.5 psi) less. Stock tyres: Schwalbe Hans Dampf, Evolution, 60-622, 29x2.35.
| Ready-to-ride weight | Front | Rear |
|---|---|---|
| 60 kg | 1.43 bar (21 psi) | 1.63 bar (24 psi) |
| 70 kg | 1.55 bar (22 psi) | 1.75 bar (25 psi) |
| 80 kg | 1.67 bar (24 psi) | 1.87 bar (27 psi) |
| 90 kg | 1.79 bar (26 psi) | 1.99 bar (29 psi) |
| 100 kg | 1.91 bar (28 psi) | 2.11 bar (31 psi) |
| 110 kg | 2.03 bar (29 psi) | 2.23 bar (32 psi) |
| 120 kg | 2.15 bar (31 psi) | 2.35 bar (34 psi) |
Air pressure in the fork and shock
You will find a guide value for air pressure on the fork sticker (or on the shock) or in the suspension makers’ charts. Our calculator also takes riding style and rebound into account. In the end, measured SAG is what counts.
