So i've had my SXT II for about 2 weeks and 6 rides, and the springs in the fork are insanely soft. i weigh about 190. i'm wondering what you guys have done, i'm not sure if i should get the medium or heavy spring. i tried to contact fox about it but no luck so far...

Being 150 lbs I have no problem with my stock FOX springs, but MBA had to swap them for stiffer ones on the SX Trail 2 they tested.

i weight 180 and also have no problem, i just put the bottum out adjust almost all the way in and im good.

At 190, you need to go one spring up. Im about 205 and use the next one up also. The spring goes in the left leg, and takes about 2 minutes to swap out. I think the socket size is 26mm, and besides that, no other tools are needed.

Bottom out adjust on a VanR? Am I missing something here? Are you talking about preload?

He's special. You're going to have to type slower. And without such big words as "preload" and "something".
