Who sells aftermarket shock and fork springs in NZ?
Just about to rebuild my forks as a seal has gone, and thinking of changing sprinsg to suit my weight at the same time.

Try using site search. Surprisingly this matter has been discussed before. Some people will be along shortly to abuse each other and confuse you.

i resemble that remark!

the free length on your fork springs should be 42. if they're too long out of spec, cut them down, if they're too short out of spec pack washers in your fork tubes, or stretch the springs.

be careful when stretching springs.. they're springy, and can get in your eye and cause damage. so wear safety glasses, and a hat.

i find a couple of old slinkys does the job up front while an old escort leaf spring works on the back.

Any bike shop or suspension tuner will have a line on an aftermarket source of springs.

If you're in Chch then I'd vote Linton, he can get stuff from Taylor anyway & is a good egg.
