Ah ok, this suspension malarkey is far too scientifical for my liking. Was it invented by triathletes or something?
Anyway, rode stuff with 275psi in it and didn't die. No idea about rebound. Feels basically the same to me no matter which side the lever is on. I'll do the kerb test and just leave it I guess.
I still need to fit a better saddle and I bet when that happens it'll be too high so I'll need another dropper. And people reckon tubeless was invented to sell bike parts..
hippy

^This. When you detach your pump, that reading is for the shock and pump together. When you screw your pump back on again, you've increased the volume but not the amount of air, so the reading is lower.
Whatever your pump says when you disconnect it is what's in the shock.
