Hi Jim, just wanted to enquire as to whether you got the nitros yet. Also I wanted to offer a bit more advice if that's alright.

Just wanted to make sure you got the correct rated springs. For instance I am 90kg and initially the hagon rep here in Aus sent me 20kg rated springs. Well afte riding for nearly a year I eventually had to screw down the pre-load to the point where it was obvious the next size up springs needed appraisal.

Well to his credit, the rep sent me both the 23 and 26kg springs. I tried both and settled with the 23kg ones. Well now they are absolutely perfect, ride wise but believe it or not, I've screwed them right down again but not to the end of its limit. I'll look into the 26kg springs being sent to me again just to make sure.

Anyway, we all make mistakes and having the right spring for you weight is obviously everything.

One other thing I really need to advise you on is is this little beauty of a mod

Again the distributor of the hagon progessive front springs is only working on the info he has but again, measuring and ensuring the sag is not too large is cruicial for a good ride.

Mate, it's taken me 15 months of fiddling around to get where I'm at now and I wouldn't say this unless I wasn't certain of the results. To put it in a nutshell, I just finished a 1400k ride after having put the pvc spacer in and what these have done to improve the ride is truely phenomenal. Good luck and let us know what you think.
