If you're thinking of taking the forks to a specialist, you might also consider replacing the progressive springs with some linear rate ones tailored to your weight/riding style. I think Brook Suspension are K-tech agents aren't they? You could have K-tech springs fitted. I did think the springs just dropped in but I've since learned from Crawsue that they have to remove some material from the fork caps to make the springs fit. I'm sure Brook Suspension can give you more details. The lightest suitable K-tech spring is 8.5N/mm. If you want to go softer, then Maxton can accommodate you but they'll also have to make you a longer preload spacer as their springs are shorter than standard or K-tech versions. I went with 7.5N/mm from Maxton and that's perfect for me. http://www.ukmonster.co.uk/monster/s...1&postcount=29 |
