22 x .1
22 x .1
19 x .1
15 x .1 (stack to adjust float)

Try a float of 1.4 - 1.5 for starters, and work down until it gets more harsh, then back up. This helps slow things down a bit.
Just installed the shims, and I hope to get the bike out for a ride to try it out tomorrow.

I went to the exact MV setup you list above, and need 0.3 mm of 15mm shims to get a float of 1.5mm. What do you think of this rebound stack
22 x 0.1
22 x 0.1
19 x 0.1
19 x 0.1
18 x 0.1
17 x 0.1
15 x 0.1
12 x 0.1

I'm concerned that I may have taken too big of a step here as I was running
22 x 0.1
19 x 0.1
17 x 0.1
15 x 0.1
12 x 0.1
12 x 0.1

Thoughts?
