Hi all.
I've read a few off the previous posts on replacing the stock springs and oil for Hagon progressive springs and thicker oil but I still don't know if it's worth doing ? Will it make a big/any difference to prevent the jumping/twitchiness off the front wheel when cornering ? also will it have a negative affect on general road riding as most roads it seems aren't that smooth ! Sorry if I'm repeating questions that have already been answered but I know little about bikes and even less about suspension ![]() Thanks Glenn |

Cheers Khewett, I'll give hagon a call and get a price. How do you decide what grade off oil to use ?

The other question is how heavy you are... Big people need big springs

Cheers all, I weigh about 12-13 stone, do I just tell Hagon this and they'll send the right spring for my weight ? Sorry for the silly questions
