Fork Swap now fork spring issues

Awesome to hear. I can't wait for mine to arrive. I think my sag on the old springs is something like 3" which didn't leave much travel.

Awesome. With 250ml of 15w oil and no air I am showing 30mm of sag with the new sonic springs. Now I just have to wait for a chance to get out on the bike for a test ride.

ETA: I know that the oil level shouldn't impact the sag but I just wanted to be complete.

I say awesome too often .

(FWIW, it is possible that someone lost or damaged a stock spacer, or wanted to change the preload, and used PVC with a stock spring)

I just had my first couple of days with Sonic springs, and my experience echoes yours. I started a thread asking about fine-tuning options, but the performance on my first-pass setup is, um, awesome. I have so much more confidence when cornering versus the dated stock setup, and they are very smooth over rough spots.

Installation was the same - it sounds more complicated than it is, although I need to go back and adjust the oil based on Rich's instructions as opposed to the factory volume (the volume doesn't affect sag, but the ratio of oil to air volume affects performance).

I also agree regarding Rich's service - he's amazingly responsive and helpful, and adds so much value to the springs.
