Thanks in part to Mitch (BIG part), I now have a set of
LG Super Spring. These things are hard to come by and Mitch led me to the guys post the same day.......and now the deal is done - sitting in the garage.
Can't wait to get them on; needing more spring rate up front.

Thanks again Mitch (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/thumbup.gif)

The debateable question is whether they get too stiff at the stiff end of the travel (fully compressed).

It wouldn't be any stiffer than riding on bump stop

With a progressive rate, you approach the end of suspension travel at a slower pace than one would with a linear rate ...

Any immediate jump in effective spring rate would be lessened and therefore more controllable.

I know Sam likes soft springs, stiff shocks and big bars and they obviously work for him in the venues he runs.

But like it or not, road courses are typically smoother than parking lots and abrupt suspension transitions are less likely. So the suppleness that a soft spring gives has little need.
