If ohlins are linear springs they're about £110 from kais
Hi Graham,
Many thanks for the info.
I have messaged Kais from their Webpage and await their reply.
£115 plus delivery for Ohlins is about the price I was expecting.
Would be great if they are Linear as I could order them (they have them in stock) then I will have a job to do over Christmas.
Well you need something, to much Christmas pud and relatives is not good for a chap.
I fitted the Nitron shock yesterday after stripping out the dog-bones and linkage, I was informed that the Mono shock can be fitted with all this stuff in place.
Not sure why anyone would want to do that as it is an opportunity to have a good clean up, and check, clean and lubricate the needle bearings on the link and swinging arm to dog-bone connection (6 of them in all).
Everything is in very good condition all the needle bearings still had some grease in them and none of the pins that pass through the bearings has any sign of wear, so all is good.
The Nitron is a magnificent piece of kit, beautifully made and looks the bogs dollocks on the bike.
I have been reading up on static and laden sag, I am really glad of the internet there is so much information and videos on there to help, just as well cos my understanding of the subject was askew, I was mistaking Static Sag and Laden Sag, and measuring the unloaded length of the fork as a datum to set everything up from.
As I said Graham53 thanks so much for your help.
