Literally, a friend has a brand new Ibis Ripmo AF with a metric DVO Jade coming his way, and it seems like he will be undersprung (Ibis puts a 400 lb/in coil in the medium sized one and all points out to him needing a 500 lb/in).

So I was wondering if anyone could point me to a spring size guide, since all the ones I know are Imperial, and even when 55mm ~ 2.25 inches, I'm not sure a 500x2.25 coill would do it.

I am planning to do the same on a new frame, when it arrives.

I think I have 500# x2.25 coils, what's the ID you need for the DVO shock?

Thanks for the reply, according to this thread, the ID is 34.5mm
