Again, you add 0 - 15 PSI to achieve a sag of 20 - 25% of total available travel. The MX COMP series that started all this, only has one air valve. Maybe someone would like to tell me why the manual shows 0-15 PSI of preload, and 30 - 65 pounds positive air? It can't be both.....there's only one air valve on the Comp.

Again, adding 0 - 15 PSI gives you 30 - 65 pounds of positive air.
I do believe the 0-15# thing is for the MX COMP ETA spring fork. The 30-60# is for the air sprung MX COMP, no ETA fork. Went through this same thing when I got my MX PRO ETA fork. The manual sucks.
