[QUOTE="Lorin, post: 958134, member: 16153"] I went to heavier springs \ moderate valving and this worked well when riding aggressive. The problem I ran into is with the heavy spring rate, you have to add considerable rebound damping to work well in the turns, and the rocks and roots deflect more than I like. I ended up going to the stock springs (one step lighter than reccommended for my weight) and adjusting the oil height and compression clickers to get a better ride. I am still tuning and may add a little preload on the fork and\or adjust sag a little, but am at least heading in the right, general direction. At least this way, I can soften up for the occassional tight, rocky ride. [/QUOTE]
