I've had my PS for a few months now and have still not gotten around to changing out the rear spring on it, which I believe is for a heavier rider (as the previous owner was a bigger than I am...probly 220 or so, if not more). Currently it rides alright...until I reach some road that is in the process of getting chewed up by construction, which is increasingly occurring here in Austin, especially in the central/south area I live in.
The current spring on my bike has these numbers on it: 00698-02/36 L175
So I've not done much research on how to get a replacement spring (I'm sure contacting Ohlins could sort that out rather quickly) for this bike. That being the case, I thought I'd ask people on this forum a)what spring should a 145 lb (that's in my birthday suit without a helmet on, so maybe 150-155 when I'm actually on the bike and clothed) rider use, and b) would anyone happen to have this spring and be willing to part with it (long shot, but worth a try).
Didn't mean to use so many parentheses, my bad.
Thanks in advance,
Josh
