Andreani fork cartridge spring kit

[mcsahib]

I bought a used rc390 with andreani fork cartridge. I found that I can only use about half of the travel. I am 150 lb without gear and the spring inside the fork is 7.8 nm, anyone ve a suggest spring rate I should use and who ve them in stock?

You may want to check oil level before you change the spring out.

If your sag settings are correct, or in the ballpark, take some oil out. If your sag numbers are all wack and you can't get them in the ballpark, then yeah -- change springs.

Time out. Before you go do anything crazy. Can someone confirm if there are internal spacers/stops with the andreanni and how long they are? Cross reference to the amount of travel. I know on my Gp suspension it doesn’t look like I am using all the travel but I am because of the internal spacers.

7.8 n-m is about .8kg-m. At 150 lbs that should be probably a little on the soft side. I would think.

The Andreanni's actually have more travel than stock. Very well could be too much oil.
