What does the air spring kit weigh? Guessing 50grams, so from the 300gram weight of the coil, what's the actual weight saving once converted?

Just wondering I have got 2015 boxxer teams and weight 82kg with full kit, so according to the rockshox website I should use the red medium spring.

However even with the yellow soft I am getting around 20% sag?

Has anyone else found this with these springs?

sag doesn't mean much. I weigh the same and go between a blue and red.

I weigh 75 kg and am running a firm Spring. I don't think I could go to medium.

One of the best places to buy parts from, shipping is about 15€ but probably still cheaper than buying somewhere else.

I needed a yellow spring to get 25-30% sag, when I was in my basement setting up the fork. But when I was actually using the fork I was back and forth between the red and blue spring. I'm 180lbs

You can convert it to air if it's not been used with the coil (the Coil scratches the insides of the fork).

But just being air isn't a world cup, you would need the charger damper too which is a much better upgrade than just the air side.

nah, I did mine this season after riding it all last season with a coil in it and it's fine. It would be hard to ruin the insides enough for the solo air cartridge to not work.
