Similar fettling with my C1 Lyrik at 140mm led me to that conclusion too. Contemplated a different air spring, coil conversion, different damper, etc. What I found really made it feel much better was putting it at the recommended base tune, dropping the PSI a touch, then adding compression when it felt like I needed it. Astonishingly, it feels very supple, supportive and has a tiny bit of travel in reserve for when things get a bit squeaky bum time and I need rescuing.
