I have just purchased a set of z1 anniversary bomber forks and after installing on my Kona Coiler I cant seem to get the correct amount of sag. Im running maximum preload and I seem to have about 45mm of sag and it seems like even more when the bike is being ridden. Does anyone know if I can get an uprated spring for them?

    so what pressure are you running for the preload?

    then i am surprised that you get 45mm of sag. they should be locked out at that.
