Mixed spring rate for fork
Reply to thread

[QUOTE="marcusgunby, post: 443589, member: 17066"] Some forks have all the compression on one side and all the rebound on the other.Some forks i believe only have one spring.The 2 forks are tied together with the clamps-they both have to go down at the same rate, they cannot twist due to the strength of the clamps/axle arrangement.So the bike doesnt know if one spring is softer than the other, it only sees the combined force of the springs. Many forks have different airgaps(in the same pair) due to owners not knowing how to set them properly.These riders do not know it is set wrong from feel.I understand from a engineering principle it sounds wrong but in reality it makes no difference.
