Look for a few people to be doing small spring rates for next year. They will cost more (even in steel), but will actually be dynoed to be within 2% or 3% of the printed rate.the fact that the majority of the springs arent anywhere near what they have printed is what makes it funny. and 26lb increments? why not 25? and other companies have tried to do small rate increments but no one is offering them anymore (K9 for one.)
and Spesh has come out with suspension products they thought will improve the bikes...the Brain (im sure this isnt anything like that crap though)
