fork maintenance - traxxion springs???

[lensflare]

hi guys,

it's time to service my fork, i found one seal brocken due to my rough landing
when weeling

now, i am thinking to change the springs with somewhat more efficent.

TRAXXION DYNAMICS seems to be interesting? anyone tried those springs?

another question... what is the GOLD VALVE???

anyone has a tutorial on how to change springs, oil and seals when servicing the fork? is there a special tool to do this job?

thank you very much!

Traxxion has a very good reputation you won't go wrong with their stuff. Go to the Race tech website to read about Gold Valves and what they do.

Personally? spend the few bucks to have the work done by someone that has done it before.. there is a spring compressor that makes the job a lot easier (not required but a good idea)

Just had mine done by Gixerhp

thank you for the kindly answers...

do you know if traxxion dynamics springs are linear or progressive?

which one do you think to be better for street "sport" riding, linear or progressive?

thank you in advance.

EMail them at Traxxion. My forks are there now. They are very knowledgeable and helpful.
