Planing on buying an M9 for this summer. Being 210 pounds, what spring should i start with on the CCDB?

See the CCDB section near the back of the M9 manual as z-man is on the mark

Close! 38.5lb. May do a Ti spring before the season starts which should drop that half pound though!

Mate had one on his after his RC4 failed, bought a CCDB a week after as he said the vivid didn't feel like it was getting it's full travel and was very "sticky".

a guy here in Austria says the opposite. he says that with the vivid he plow through the travel, and that´s more like that what i fell when riding it, even when i' m not bottoming it out. I'm riding in the most progressive setting on the frame and still use the full travel in compressions and on landings, which comes maybe because of the false tune (low compression tune)

Hmm. Another mate had your issue but on a different frame, V10 I think.

yep, i was always more a FOX fan. just bought the boxxer wc/vivid air to try them. but on my scalp they worked both good. the boxxer isn't so smooth as my 40 or kowa was, but it stands higher in it's travel and i've got the feeling it allows my to go faster on really rough stuff. for the vivid air i'm trying to find the right setup for the m9, and if i can't fand it, i'll go for a bos void or ccdb air. or a full marzocchi setup with 380 and moto. or when there will be an air version of the rc4 maybe a new fox setup
