depends what you want.fast guys and racers like to drop forks and raise rear.
pretty close to what 650 guys do. however it is all personal preference,try and pick what feels good to you. |

Just rang my mate who had one (Landan Sam on here, just sold it the other day), he says they were dropped about 5mm on his, he had it from new and dropped them himself at a later date.

They do pop through as standard. I'll measure mine tomorrow when I get up (Tue) and let you know because I have the SZ also.
