Beta Front Forks

Hi all

Looking to stiffen up my front forks on my 19 Factory, does anyone  know of where I could get hold of a stiffer spring ?

The aftermarket one is out of stock everywhere and apparently there isn’t anyone making them. 

Also would using thicker oil help if so what weight could I go up to ? 

Thanks in advance for your help !

 You got to be pretty big to need stiffer front. So did you already get a heavier rear?

Possibly the world biggest trials rider 6 ft 8”, 17 stone. 

Already got a stiffer spring on the rear already but still find it too soft, just ordered an Ohlins set up for my size.

I’ve just rebuilt my front forks with new fork seals , I’m now finding the forks very soft they don’t bottom out but they’re not far off ,I’ve used belray 7.5 and I followed the guide of 60 ml air gap in the damper side and 120 spring side , my question is can I just unscrew the top caps and add more oil to stiffen them up?
