6″ Shock Sox – 3 Velcro tabs

*When installing the 6″ Shock Sox…First, we recommend securing the middle strap, this keeps the Shock Sox from walking on you. Secure the middle strap around the bottom of the upper fork tube at the dust seal area. Securely wrap the middle tab overlapping the receiving side of the Shock Sox. Second, wrap the circumferential (upper) strap just above, and overlap the receiving side of the Shock Sox….making sure there is not an exposed seam between the upper and middle straps. Third, wrap the bottom strap tightly just under the seal on the lower fork tube.

* The Shock Sox logo should be facing outward. However, in the event that the logo is facing outward and the side-wall of your tire knobby’s are rubbing-tearing into the Velcro tabs, simply rotate the Shock Sox, so that the Velcro tabs are not facing inside and are not aligning with the knobby side-walls of your tire.

Properly installed, the Shock Sox should cover all metal, and you should not see a seam of metal fork tubing underneath.
