Brand new NC700x owner here. Having the same type problems. Sharp “ up” bumps feel as if the bike has no shock at all and actually bounce the bike (and my 230lb, 63 year old arse) upward hard enough to compromise traction. I haven’t measured the sag yet, but the bike feels very firm when I sit on it. I want to experiment with changing the pre- load before doing anything else, but have no idea at this point if I have too much or too little preload. Is it just a matter of trial and error? Or is there a systematic way to go about this?
