[QUOTE="WoodsRider, post: 457398, member: 16545"] The comment I have (and Jer may want to jump in), after Jer re-did my 45 'zokes they worked awesome in sand whoops. Unfortunately another job transfer brought me to the land of New England rock gardens. The 'zokes did not perform well at all until I replaced the springs with the stock springs that are technically way too soft. With these springs the bike turns great in the tight stuff, but the front has a tendency to tuck in when turning in soft soils. I also know it's riding lower in the stroke as the front still deflects badly off roots. After playing around with these forks I came to the conclusion the stiffer springs had too much pre-load (approximately 20mm). I've reduced this, with a shorter bushing, to approximately 4mm and will try it out Sunday. [/QUOTE]
