I went to K Tech as they were the cheapest (85 quid if I remember correctly). I got linear 9.5's at 13 stone as I do like to lean on the front end, Plus I have changed the rear shock so my bike isnt standard.
I tend to think springs are springs, as long as you avoid Chinese knock offs then once you get in amongst the named brands they are much of a muchness. I know Ohlins have the best name, and their stuff is great, but springs werent where they made their name.
Unless you go for the progressive Hyperpros would you really be able to tell the difference between any of the others you list?
Definately buy Ohlins fork oil though. They spent shitloads developing that and it has been proven better than the other brands.
