Using the stock springs when I preload the shock spring for recommended 35 mm free sag I get 120 mm rider sag which is 20 mm too much.
Do you agree I should buy 0.46 and 5.8?
What suppliers and brands should I be looking at?
Never bought springs for KYB stuff before.
I love my Gasgas and want to spend more quality time alone with her in the bush isolating myself from Coronavirus!
Thanks guys, Steve

They are my exact spring rates. I am between 95-97 kg nude depending on poo status. Bike handles brilliantly.
