May 27, 201214 yr I have a 2008 Beta Rev 4T. I weigh 250lbs (113kg). Obviously I need beefier front/back springs than stock. Two questions: 1. How do I determine the correct stifness of springs? 2. Where do I get them? I'll do the work in my own shop. thanks.
May 30, 201214 yr TT, I just ordered the only fork spring in stock from The Splat Shop. Dims are: 365mm long by 32mm outer diameter. Spring rate 0.9kg/mm (8.8N/mm). Cannonracecraft can build you one, but it will cost more than the approx $80 shipped (to the US) Splat Shop price (Cannonracecraft quoted me $175 for two (didn't understand I only needed one)). I am working on dims for the shock and will likely have Cannon build that. If anyone has the factory dims on the shock spring (2008), please chime in. I assume it's a progressive spring as the shock valving is progressive. I'm guessing the rear shock needs to be in the 80N/mm range, but any info would be greatly appreciated.
June 5, 201214 yr Author Thanks for the info. My local distributor has fork springs, but nothing for the shock. I am having a hard time finding out even why type of shock it is?!?
June 5, 201214 yr Paioli if its on a rev 3? Back spring, grey shock body. One small allen adjuster at the top and rear of the shock.
