    Wanted Stiff spring for noleen elt fork

    I have a noleen elt fork (not the smart shock version) but the spring on it is super thin and I need something a bit more supportive. I have another on a wall hanger frame but it's proper chipped and tatty so am after another fresher one if you have one let me know. Cheers

Does anyone know of a brand that works...
