TE/TC 2017 TX300 Spring Rate Chart +

well I made the spread sheet I just cant load it yet....

You're such a tease ;>}

save as a pdf or png.... come on man

here pdf I dont get it it wont open or post?? I just did this for the TE300 spring rates but it was in png file from snag it program

thanks.....for some reason I could not get it up........

I kinda hope someone comes up with a Air pressure setting to match the rear spring rates, for mathematical chassis balance like they do on the spring bikes. It helps at least get you very close, to work with for your own personal setting.

BUUUUUMMMMP

The RaceTech calculator does give you a recommend fork air pressure. How accurate it is I don't know.

the book/chart stated 3 psi increments so i kind of assume add 3 for each rate. ex. i have a one rate heavier spring order for my heft so I will add 3 psi to the fork once my spring is on.

So I tried the race tech calculator based on my age, weight (190lbs no gear) and riding style and it recommended 142PSI, which is 3lbs more than stock. I also have 1 stiffer size shock spring, so this seems in line with the 3lb increment recommendation.

I'm 210lbs and it spec'd 156psi for me. I'm two rates up on the rear to a 48N/mm as per the manual, which is also what Race Tech recommended. So the 3psi increment doesn't hold true for Race Tech in all circumstances..

I played with it and it varies by age, weight and rider class. So if you are heavier, younger and an A rider, it was much different.

I tend to side with the OEM as far chassis balance goes.

Isn't that the problem though with this fork? There is not OEM recommendation for lighter/heavier riders.

I'm actually running about 134psi and I'm 220 lbs without gear. I think for slow technical single track it's just too harsh at the 139psi or higher.

Fact is we all have different needs and feel along with skill levels that will dictate what each of us wants or likes.
I've ridden pros bikes that were so stiff they are unridable for me and ridden other pros bikes that were plush just the way I like it.

I just check my sag now that the bike has close to ten hours on it. With my rider sag at 105mm, the static sag is a 25mm, so my spring is a little too soft. I'm 220 without gear and the spring on there is 4.8kg/mm. To get that extra 10mm of static (the manual specs 35mm static), do you think I should go to a 4.9 or 5.0?

Yes you should go up a spring rate if the static sag is 25mm.

Do you think one is enough?
