Thanks JoeRock,
I have been having a good look round the site and there is loads to learn on this.
All i really want is to kill the front end dive when you throw on the anchors at speed. But at the same time i like to do a bit of touring in the summer so it would be good to not have it set up to stiff that it becomes jarring on a long cruise.
Progressives seemed the natural choice, but do you reckon they would actually do much to stop the front end dive?
