Right, I'm going to finally get my finger out, and sort the front bouncy bits (ooh err) of my SV out.
I'm not a small fellow, about 13.5 stone in the nod, gawd knows what I am with me cowskin plastic and carbon wrapped round me might weigh meself when I get home from work tonight. I ride mainly bumpy back roads, I am quite heavy on the brakes, and I do the occasional trackday. I know I have been using all the travel the forks have to offer in their current state (cabletie nearly on the bottom yoke ![]() So my question is, roughly what rate springs do I want? Danno. |

Ah, but I did not tell yee I am only 3 feet tall...
No point asking on fork oil yet really, as that will be largely dependant on the springs I go for "wunt ut" (that's norfolk for innit). Danno. |

BUMP, ooh the irony in a thread about suspension.
Come on, someone else must have even a rough idea of what I'm after? Or do all replacement springs for the SV only come in one rate? (surely not) Danno. |
