Johnathan Weisman is a legend of a suspension mechanic, handling most of the suspension work for some of the top Sherco Factory riders, including greats like Destry Abbott, Cody Webb, and Louse Forsley (who all happen to have also been our Mobcast guests recently, I'm sure that's just a coincidence). Because of his experience running race level enduro suspension for so many of the riders we're so impressed with, we figured Johnny would be the ideal person to come talk to you all about how you can maximize your own suspension outcomes. We were not disappointed! Johnny pretty much blew our minds, ok maybe not literally, but he did really impress us with his approach, ideas, and intuition when it came down to how suspension actually works. 

Most people know there are springs (or air), some oil, and some little clickers that make things different. But how it all comes together into a comprehensive "theory of suspension" is as black box as, well real black boxes. Few people, us included, have any real sense for what happens inside those shiny canisters, it's probably magic right?

Talking with Johnny was so eye opening because he demystified how it all works together, how your riding style impacts your choices, and he tells us where to start when thinking about suspension tuning for the first time. Anyway, before we spoil it all, just go listen for yourselves, you will not be disappointed. 

We do need to quickly thank you for bearing with our audio issues on this episode. We had some technical difficulties, basically it was a shitshow of poor podcast operations (all on us, no fault of Johnny). We're getting it dialed, listen to this one because it's worth it, we'll have our act together next time, we promise.
