    I currently run a VanRC with a 350lb x 2.37″ spring fitted (thanks to Loco) on a Remedy

    I understand that the 350lb is the spring rate (and that’s fine)
    and the 2.37″ is the amount of travel.
    The whole spring is 12cm long (4.72″)

    Now… if I want to fit a different spring, such as a ti one, what specs are valid/equivalent? I want the same spring rate (350lb) as I’m happy with that.

    – will, say a 350×2.5 be okay?
    – are all springs 12cm long?
    (the shock body could handle a longer spring)
    – would a 2.5 actually result in more travel? (maybe a daft question….)
    – would a 2.5 change how the bike rode (sag, feel, geo etc.)?
    – are all ti springs of the same spec, the ‘same’?

    If there is an online resource that would be handy.
