Default Fix your forks now!

I realised yesterday that the way I'd gone about calculating the static sag for my forks was wrong! I had about 10mm more sag than I should have! I added a stack of washers last night and got it right. What a difference it's made. Paradoxically (it's not really), having stiffened the springs, the ride is now softer. Bumps are soaked up much better and the feeling that the bars are going to get ripped out of my hands has been vastly reduced. A test ride this afternoon quickly showed some real hooligan hustling round the B-roads hereabouts is on the cards.
