mobbster Posted December 29, 2010 Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 Hi Steam Most trials bike these days are factory set with a rear spring set to its maximum for a rider of 75/80kgs (11 to 12 stone) Steve saunders web site has some info - ( http://www.saundersextremesports.co.uk/product.php?id=1248718752&parent=4 ) These are for a beta evo but will give you an idea.

steam Posted December 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 Are uprated springs available for a Rev 3? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigman Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 I made a similar topic to this a few days ago, I was shown this website Trick-Bits who appear to be able to get springs, it only says that he has a few sherco spring in stock, but as the page says nothing about manufacturer specifics etc I assume they can get them for any bike. I myself will be after heavier springs for my bike when I get one, and its more than likely going to be a Rev 3 too, so let me know how you get on.

steam Posted December 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 [Thanks for info, but trick Bits no longer sell springs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigman Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 Ah, thats abit of a pain then, I spoke to my local trials dealer (Behind bars in Kenilworth, midlands) and they said that they would be able to source springs if i wanted them, so it might be worth speaking to you local dealer, or best bet would also be to speak to some moto X guys as I am aware that there are places that make custom springs for moto X and I am pretty sure that given the right sizes etc they could knock up some for a trials bike.
