Thank you for sharing this. This method is a good starting point for tuning
the rebound. With this method you avoid an extreme setting (which many people
have). There is no advantage on having the rebound slower than critical
damping. So this method is good to avoid those slower settings. The question
is how faster it should be. With a tiny bounce on curb test you got a damping
similar to what is used on many off-road vehicles. It keeps a good amount of
stability on the bike without overshooting and recovery quickly enough to
track successive bumps. I don't recommend to go much faster than this since
you will sacrifice stability and you will amplify pedal Bob and other lower
frequencies inputs. Bye
