Bike sag (weight of bike only) and race sag (with a rider) are the most important steps in making sure the bike will work optimally. Basically, bikes are made to work in a certain range with a certain weight on them. Adjusting the sag into this range will keep the bike and the rider happy. If you're too light or heavy for the stock spring, this will show up obviously when you're setting the sag. As always, grab your manual and read up on your bike's suggested settings.

It's always good to start back at the manufacturer's standard settings if you're having trouble or looking to improve your ride. They spend a lot of time testing for baseline settings, use them!

Hope this helps.
