hyper pro

hi, anyone used hyper pro progressive fork springs? are they any good, big difference, worth the money, your thoughts gents please. cheers Steve

Yes, used them in an xchallenge. Certainly reduced the dive, particulary when a TT tank is fitted, making it far better for road work. I think I got mine for approx £130. easy enough job to fit, though i remember having to find a narrowish spanner to hold the nut that sits inside the spring that you need to undo/tighten.

cheers Gareth, might have a go with them, they are a very cheap fix. I've got shiver internals in the original marzo's and I took some really hard knocks on recent trip so I've got to do something .

Ohlin inserts in mine, not sure on price or whether still available but very good.

HyperPro recommended for value/performance for money - used them on all of my G650X bikes

I used the oil that came in the HyperPro kit and it was fine with a XL XTank and luggage
