This one was Jim Rawnsley's idea: a mono-shock spring for my front suspension. My previous spring, one of a pair for a motorcycle, was not stiff enough. Meanwhile, having sent my numbers off to a spring specialist, I was told that they didn't have anything suitable, and they would have to do a custom job which would start at £150. So rather than spend a fortune, I thought, ok, it may not be the proper thing to do, but I will just try whatever is available - and available second hand. So, this one today is a spring off a DT174MX motorcycle. In theory, it is about twice the spring the previous one was, except that I am not inserting an inner spring, so should be extra without being excessive. In theory.
Reading that back, I am not sure it makes lots of sense, but never mind because nobody is reading this anyway.😁
