Dyno Chart

This is just awesome. Not only does Cane Creek supply this to customers, but it also shows just how incredible this damper is.

Springs

  • 350x3.5
  • 400x3.5
  • 450x3.5 (currently used)

I'm not very happy with the quality of these springs. They are not very true accross the usable range. The rates vary from 91% to 107% of labled rate. Not great by motorsport standards (within 2%) but better than what Fox clams as their tolerance (15%). Here is a dynamic rating of some motorsport springs: http://pvdwiki.com/index.php?title=Springs#All_springs_are_progressive

End Bearings

Bearings are marked as a Glacier Garlock product #K7A. 0.500" ID, 0.625" OD, 0.500" LG.

The bearings are a very light slip fit. Mine needed to be held in place using retaining compound, Loctite #680. "Slip fit"
