October 3, 201213 yr Hi, Im trying to get some springs for the shock and the forks on a 2003 Gas Gas 280 pro. Ideally i would like to get stiffer springs as i am 13 stone before kit. I got told by a gas gas dealer to go through K tech suspension. But i emailed them and they said they don't do trials suspension. Any help would be awesome
October 4, 201213 yr Given where you are I'd try BVM-Moto in Stroud. I'm not sure what rear shock you have but Ohlins do rated springs that can fit Sachs shocks as well.
October 9, 201213 yr I rang Gas Gas UK a couple of months ago for hte very same thing, OM me and I'll send you a contact where you can get a stiffer replacement Ohlins spring and spacer, you need the spacer/adaptor because the OEM spring is tapered. Cost me £55 for spring, spacer as p&p - Ordered Tuesday afternoon, was delivered Wednesday lunchtime - Result!
October 10, 201213 yr in 2003 (unless some previous or this owner changed it) the shock should be a Sachs shock, not Ohlins...
