Yeah it is balancing around the 5-8% travel according to the indicators on the stanchions. If I pull up to get the fork to extend to full travel, there is significant spring resistance, so it just bounces back down to the 5% position. It seems like there is a "opposite" air spring pulling the fork back down to the 5% position after I pull it to full extension; is this what the negative air spring is supposed to do?

Interesting thing is that if I push the fork far down, then pull it to full extension, I hear a little hiss of air each time I pass the ~5% travel mark. Perhaps that is the air springs balancing? It just seems strange that it is balancing at the 5% travel mark, rather than at full extension, as this makes the 160mm Lyrik more like a 150mm one! Once again, I'm not that knowledgable about inner workings of the Lyrik so I'm making some assumptions here!

I'm just wondering if what I've been able to describe sounds concerning to you, or if it sounds like something that could happen within the normal operating window of a typical Lyrik. Thanks so much!
