I'm after a 450lb spring to fit a 190 x 50 Vanilla RC shock, so around 2.3" stroke.

What you got?

I have a 400x2.25 NukeProof Spring, brand new, fitted once only to realise it's too soft for me.

one of these

would do for £20 posted

Also think I have a 450x2.0 (which should be ok for a 50mm stroke) manitou shock spring, used but in good condition which I could do for £15 posted

Thanks Matt, but 400 is too soft, and I think a 2.0 will be cutting it fine for a 50mm shock.

no probs, the 2.0 should be OK for a 50mm shock though, it came on a 50mm shock and I have another 50mm here with a 2.0 spring on so let me know if you change your mind!

I have a Fox 450lb x 2.8 spring if that's any good?

It might be - what's the length of the spring?

That Manitou is designed for 2' stroke shocks.

I think I have a 450lb x 2.25 Fox spring at home off a DHX, but I'll have to double check - it might be heavier.

Never mind - it's a 500lbs.
