    Hello, just managed to get the account registered finally.

    I recently bought an used CRF250L. It has a stock rear suspension with stock spring. I would like to replace this spring with something stronger, as I weight ~85 kg + gear (it might be up to 15 kg in winter time). The spring might be old and worn too.

    Could anybody recommend a spring to me? Would be better solution instead of just testing. I see plenty on ebay but don't know which one to order.

    If someone has ordered a stronger spring for his bike and feels the difference to be just as needed, please send a link, a model, a producer + series of spring. Thanks!

    The problem is solved with most cost efficient way. I purchased 3 spacers and and put 2 in lower part of the spring and 1 in the upper. Now the spring has more pressure and the bike rides like a dream.

    I'm not 100% sure if he's talking about this or not, but this is a simple way to basically add more preload to the existing stock shock
