Hey folks, forgive me if this is a repost. But I've got a 2015 TUES and it's got a 275lb coil spring on the shock, and I'm looking for a 400lb spring but can't find one in stock anywhere. I'm wondering if any of you might know of a good compatible brand spring that is an option. I've tried a fox coil and the inner diameter was too small. I appreciate your help.
Hi Just wondering if any luck with this? I have the exact same problem - didn't realize my Tues came stock with such a low spring rate. Maybe it's because they're targeting youth (YT)? This is the Achilles heal of this bike and super frustrating finding a replacement 400lb spiring, which is also what I need. Any help is appreciated but not a good look for YT.
check the buysell periodically, something may come up there. the vivid is an older shock and rockshox doesnt make 10.5x3.5 shocks anymore so it doesn't surprise me they stopped making them
Never...buying...from...YT...again. This is total BS. Obviously had I known I would end up with this total PITA situation I would not have bothered with these guys. Thinking of reporting them to BBB.
I'll buy your 275# spring I just called DirtLabs and they have a 450# spring for sale 720-213-4742

Just wondering what is your weight? The shock has a huge stroke, so the rates are low as you compress it more.. What is the target sag ?
I ordered 325lb from trade inn https://www.tradeinn.com/bikeinn/en/rockshox-spring-grey-vivid-kage-267-x-89-mm/137670107/p
