Adjustable Rate Coil Spring

Adjusting your shock's spring rate can profoundly improve your bike's handling and suspension. In fact, you may find yourself using different spring rates for different trails, depending on the conditions and type of trail. Or you may increase your spring rate for long climbs and decrease it for down hills.  No expense was spared on the materials or manufacturing processed used. The coil itself is made of super high tensile spring steel similar to "lightweight" springs (which is why Sprindex is lighter than regular springs) in order to handle the stress of the system when adjusted to its highest spring rate setting, as well as reduce coil mass. The Sprindex assembly is made of glass reinforced polymer. The 5 included adapters are made of slippery Delrin. Spring rate is the force required to move a spring a given distance and independent of preload. For example, a "400 lb/in" spring requires 400 pounds to move the spring 1 inch and 800 pounds to move a spring 2 inches. Preload is how mu
