LSR has good info on how to set up the bike, but do not use there specs for other arms and manufacturers. Setup the bike with it on level ground and the main rider on it, with full gear on.

4.5 degrees is for the gull wing style of a arms, wouldn't it differ for the Walsh/JB style of a arms??

i would like to know what others are running as of the walsh/JB style a arms??
