How do I shorten my front springs. I want to take them down to the low end of spec, just to get my bike a little lower.
Can I just heat the ends up with a torch and collapse them? Do I get them red hot with a gradual transition zone into the cool part of the spring? I just don't want them to break at the heat transition zone.
I know they'll get a little stiffer theoretically, and I have slightly softer springs anyway. I'm thinking 5-10 mm won't change the rate much.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Toby
