Youl have to get a fork pump to bring with you to dial yourself in, but if you swing by a bike shop they might help ya out and do it for you real quick to get your base sag till you buy one. But nah right off the rip it was oh well your new stuff your excited about and your first real bike is garbage and dont even bother. Cool. Great way to keep people around and interested.
Relax, it is the internet, have a thick skin or don't hang out on the internet. People will help but they might also "break your balls" a little. Nobody is out to get you or attack you or anything but we might all say things in a rougher manner than normal simply because it is not in person so we don't have to always be as gentle. It is a bike forum people have fun because it is a fun subject. People are willing to help you but you have to be willing to accept the help and not get hurt when people give the truth. We don't lie or sugar coat things because it doesn't help you in the end it doesn't help anyone in the end.

If someone tells you that an basic bike is the best bike to your face and doesn't explain the truth then that is not a person I want to be around because they are clearly lying to me and that is not cool.
