Hey all, I remember reading (here at RM.com>DH) that some riders from here tried using axial bearings/bushings at both ends of their shock spring. The idea behind was that the spring has torsional twist when being compressed, in opposite direction at each end, which causes a friction on the contact area of spring w/ nut. Axial bearings/bushings are to eliminate this friction. Those riders reported perceptible increase of shock sensitivity.
Can you remember that discussion, too? Could you help me find that thread? Or maybe it was a tweak from some suspension tuning company, I can't remember. What's your guess about why manufacturers don't use this trick?
