How it compares
120–130 mm at the fork almost exactly matches the 120 mm median of the 23 bikes in the “cross-country full-suspension bike” category in our database. Of Yeti’s mountain bikes, the Yeti ASR offers the least travel up front. The frame is made of carbon.
The Yeti ASR does well on weight: 10.3 kg for the XTR Di2 build is 0.5 kg below the median of comparable bikes (10.8 kg). Within the range, weight varies by 0.9 kg. With a starting price of €6,200 (C2 90), the Yeti ASR is above the category median (€4,350). The top build, 40th Anniversary, costs €15,900. Depending on the build, fork and shock come from FOX and RockShox. In total, 4 different forks are used, from the RockShox SID Select 3P to the FOX Factory 34 SL Grip X.
Setup notes for this spec
- Air fork (RockShox SID Select 3P): 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 FOX and RockShox adjuster fully closed first and count clicks from there – that way you can note settings and restore them later.
- Air shock (RockShox SIDluxe Select + 3P): 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 Yeti ASR
SAG is the share of travel your weight already uses in the riding position. The table gives it straight in millimetres – read the O-ring on the stanchion and on the shock shaft and adjust the air pressure until it matches. Any figures from Yeti take priority.
120 mm fork (C2 90, X0/90, X0 AXS, XTR Di2, XX SL AXS Ultimate)
| Riding style | Fork SAG |
|---|---|
| XC / touring | 17 % = 20 mm |
| Trail | 20 % = 24 mm |
| Enduro / rough | 22 % = 26 mm |
| Bike park | 20 % = 24 mm |
130 mm fork (40th Anniversary)
| Riding style | Fork SAG |
|---|---|
| XC / touring | 17 % = 22 mm |
| Trail | 20 % = 26 mm |
| Enduro / rough | 22 % = 29 mm |
| Bike park | 20 % = 26 mm |
How to measure SAG is explained in our guide SAG setup.
Tyre pressure starting values
The values apply to 2.40″ wide tubeless tyres with a trail casing. With an inner tube add about 0.2 bar (2.9 psi), with an insert take off about 0.1 bar (1.5 psi). Stock tyres: Maxxis Forekaster 2.4 EXO Anniversary / Maxxis Forekaster 2.4 EXO Anniversary; Schwalbe Rick Xc Pro 2.4 / Schwalbe Rick Xc Pro 2.4.
| 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.
