just bought a bike fitted with coil sektors and need to change the spring.
has anyone done it and if so is it an easy job??
cheers

coil swap on my u-turn sektors was basically easy. Don't lose the little bearings under the u-turn adjuster if you have it, otherwise just big spanner and care not to cross threads. IIRC there was also a little circlip at the top of the u-turn assembly that made all the difference.
are they u-turn or fixed travel?
either is pretty simple
if they are fixed travel just remove the cap on the left hand leg, pull out the spring (look out for spacers/washers), replace.
if they are turnkey its pretty similar, its all on their technical manual download pages on sram.com
use little magnet to hold onto the ball bearings under the u-turn adjuster
