Hi all,

I need a firmer spring for my 2007 patriot 66. I cant work out these calculators and dont have a clue what spring i need? I am 16 stone and like it pretty firm.

Any ideas? I need length etc, rate, etc...

There should be some numbers written on the current spring, something like 550x2.8. If you can tell us these then we can probably figure it out for you.

How much travel is the bike?

Are you sure it is a 2007 Patriot 66? Orange don't list the 66 for 07.
