Hyperpro springs - which way up
Half way through fitting hyperpros and their guide says to mount with the tight winding upward, which is different from the standard which has the (slightly) tighter windings downward. (SK3 by the way)
Anybody remember which way round they did it? And why does it make a difference? |

Doesn't matter really, tighter coils down is supposed to be quieter.

Re: Hyperpro springs - which way up
Tighter coils at the top - the teeny weeeny weeniest reduction in unsprung weight.
