can anyone help me please, I have fitted hagon fork springs, my problem is when I am riding it feels as though the forks on rebound seem to bang on the return, almost as if the rebound springs are not doing their job. I have backed off all the preload and turned the damping up to the max, has anyone else had the same problem, and could anyone please give me some advice, thanks dave

Try 15w fork oil, it will give you more compression and rebound damping.

What weight are you and what spring rate did they supply???

thanks guys first of all conrod, I am using 15 weight oil, and cobbadiggybuddybloo, I am 100 kilos ready to ride, hagon did not specify a weight I just bought the springs

Have you set the sag?

hi con rod sorry for the delay answering I work away and cant always get on line, at the risk of appearing thick can you explain what you mean by setting the sag, thanks

Adjusting the preload only adjusts the ride height (sag) - as the man says, a little light reading will be your friend
