This is the rule of thumb I use in setting up my road and in the past my race bikes, along with other information collected from Chris at K-Tech etc.

Thanks Chris that's really good info.

The way they describe it, setting up the suspension unweighted (static sag) is important for setting the geometry of the bike as a starting point. Although obviously as soon as you sit on it that all goes completely out of the window if the other parts of the system are wrong!

Usefully, they go into detail about how to get those other bits 'right' too.

Once static sag is set the rider sag can be checked, if it is out you need a different spring that will then suit the riders weight., problem solved.
