Hi guys,
I'm currently in the process of doing up an NC23 that I bought off forum member wullvfr. I've sorted the rear suspension with a maxton shock but now want to move on to the front.
Any ideas? Also the preload adjusters on the fork tops look like someone has chewed them with a pair of pliers so they will need replacing aswell
Front suspension upgrade options for NC23?

I would advise speaking to Graham France as he can supply you with a racetec spring kit and oil to suit your weight. They make a big difference to the ride.
For the preload adjusters GF should have some too.. think the nc30 ones fit??

nc23 forks have better internal dampining than nc29 as std
granted they need the preload adjusters
you only have to look at graemes own nc29 race bikes to see they use the 23 forks...what does that say...
set up your 23 forks

Stiffer springs and reduced valves.
How long are your springs Ive got some 600 FN's kicking around and PL adjusters.
