carl13671 Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Just a quick one, Has anybody ever increased the length of the spacer at the top of the front suspension legs to make the suspension stiffer. As using a thicker oil would only slower the rebound im thinking of inreasing the length of the top spacer with washers or a longer tube to harden the downward pressure, Anyone with any thoughts or tried this.

kobascle Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 I have doubled the spacer length on several bikes and found that it reduces the travel by about half. Simply use a piece of pvc pipe double the stock spacer length Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
