Hello,

Is replacing the springs in showa forks a bit job?

would you advice new seals and apart from the springs, what other bits would I need. (seal/washers etc)

I bought some Ohlins springs at the Alley Pally and would like to swap them over.

Thankyou in advance.

regards

Hmmmmm, i recon its a take to somewhere like ktech jobbie.......where you could of bought the springs.

Did you save much on them?

Harris usually discount the springs at the Ally Pally show, last time I got some full price was £68 and show price was nearer £50.

As for fitting it depends on what tools you have, personally I don't find it that hard a job

Hello,

andyb thought about Ktec for buying and getting the work done. (but at a guess I am sure they are not cheap)

But got them for £60 plus postage as they did not have any on the stand.

Been reading the bible, and would like to give it ago, But still unsure as I am heading into new territory

regards

K-Tech reworked my forks with their 20SSK kit and fitted new springs for a little under £300 and rebuilt the rear Ohlins for less than £50, so they're not that expensive.
