Re: NC30 Shock spring Options??????
I bought an Ohlins for mine. it is a generic item and so I do not see why you would have to wait for one. They are all much of a muchness under the fancy coloured powdercoat!
Faulkener/faulkner? Do springs..
At a push, or if you are light enough, you can use your current spring and all is good..

Re: NC30 Shock spring Options??????
Im doing eactly the same thing at the moment, I've just received my new spring from maxtons £72 delivered.
Was going to get one from faulkeners as they will powdercoat any colour for an extra £3, unfortunately though faulkeners cant tell you what poundage of spring you need for your weight etc.
Spring places arent very forthcoming with how the work out the weights, quoting R&D times etc etc, so my only option was to buy one from maxton suited to my weight (15st in my gear) which worked out at 925lb
By the way spring size you need is 6" free length by 2.25 diameter.

Re: NC30 Shock spring Options??????
Spring rates are a bloody mystery to me, i called maxton some time ago for a new spring for a maxton shock id just brought, current spring had 1024 or something similar stamped on it and the previous owner said he had it setup for about 15 stone. Im 12 stone kitted and maxton seemed to think i already had the correct spring???? No amount of adjustment ever got the shock feeling right
