suspension adjustment

bike seems to be riding really well, and I got the tape measure out today to check the sag

front:
static 40mm
loaded 72mm

rear:
static 20mm
loaded 45mm

think I may need to make a few changes!

is it as simple as upping preload, or should I be adjusting compression too? I sent an email to Dan Kyle and he suggested I should back ALL the preload OFF and let the suspension adjuster take care of it, but that sag should be 40mm F/30mm R, but this is the opposite of everything I've been told before re my weight on a bike (I wonder if he confused pounds with kilos!)

like I say, seems to ride ok.....yours, confused.....
