first of all, i just finished this build and i haven't been on a downhill bike in 8 years. I was worried about how I'd feel on the bike but I am AMAZED at how comfortable I feel on this bike. It's like it was made for me. So glad I decided to go with a canfield!
and now my minor dilemma... What springs are you guys running on your jedi and how heavy (or light
) are you?
Sean originally recommended a 500 lb. spring for me (190 with gear, maybe 185) but I got a 400 on mine right now since they didn't have any when they shipped my bike. The 400 feels very plush and nice but I can tell I'm going to bottom it fairly easily. I think I want to go 450 but I thought I'd ask around for some input before I make my decision.
What do y'all think?
