I'm picking my cannibal up today 👍 . I had too many washouts the other week in woods on my standard assegai. I eventually dropped the pressure to 16 psi with an insert but it wasn't perfect.
A lot of people wind the compression off to make the forks softer, but this means the air spring is doing the job instead and it's not supposed to. If you watch the video, they are saying that for the forks to work correctly then each adjustment needs to be doing something.

I was struggling with my 38s so I sent them off for a service. I would normally do that myself but the warranty was almost up. It turns out that the grip 2 damper was broken, so I got a new one under warranty.
I don't use any spacers in my forks because I don't ride it hard enough to blow...
I would try max pressure, 3 volume spacers, fully open rebound and fully closed compression. If its bottoming out then stick some more volume spacers in. Unless someone your weight has some settings, you are the crash test dummy 😂
There's a good chance that no manufacturer will tell you it's OK to modify anything outside it's designed parameters.
That ce sticker you see on things means it's been designed and built to work as purchased. If you alter it and it goes pear shaped then it's down to you. That's not saying it...
On a more serious note, whilst trying to sort a rattle out on my bike that only happens on fast uneven ground. I also change the headset, checked the forks for creaking,wheel spokes etc and even stuffed bubble wrap in the down tube. I think I have narrowed it down to the motor gears and the...
Well I'm truly disappointed that no one has suggested that you stop running into things like kerbs!
What is this forum coming to 🤔
If you ever get it sorted then I will bring you my bike to sort out 👍
My XO1 chain has done 2.5k miles on an SLX 12s cassette. Considering that I was changing the cheap chains every 300 to 500 miles I am well impressed with it.
I very rarely lube it or do a proper clean. All I do is give it a spray of gt 85 every ride whereas the cheap chains where constantly...
I'm similar settings but I reckon I won't ride my bike anywhere near as hard as you! But OK for the Lakes and the peak district.
Rider weight is around 96k

105 psi gives me around 34mm sag as recommended including the 10mm or so of sag from the bikes own weight
