Hi guys,

Thanks for this review and both your comments.
I'm currently considering the change to my suspension, mainly for the same reasons as you have stated Tripletom, and have considered going this route with the Ohlins setup front and rear. I've also considered getting the Hyperpro springs as a cheaper alternative, but at the end of the day I'd still be left with stock shock with no damping adjustment.
I've also been looking at the Nitron shock, but am not sure where I'd fit the reservoir as I have a scottoiler in the location you have fitted yours tripletom. If I look at a nitron with a piggyback reservoir then the cost difference between it and the Ohlins becomes less. The more I look the more confusing it gets!

Travelling Light, when you changed the fork springs did you need to completely strip the fork or could you just have taken the top cap off, drained the oil and replaced it and the new spring in the way people have described fitting the Hyperpro springs. Did you also repace the spacer? How do the forks feel over the bumps?

Thanks again Travelling light for the review and your comments. It's certainly been helpful and come along at the right time, and has just reinforced my view that changing the springs isn't a bad thing to do.
