I was looking for springs for my amp fork.
In the list of springs available were urethane springs they looked like the ones i had in my rst's,round flat ends with a hole through the middle,they come in different density's
google spring suppliers ,if they have a catalog u'll see a pic
associated spring uk is the company name

This company also sells compression springs for pennies.
Fox ,marzocchi and the like charge you through the nose for the same type of springs

I should get the 400lb springs that i need for my amp fork for a few quid
If i got the springs from Amp in the states it would cost a fortune

Aint i great
 
The springs for your AMP fork with se steel coil ones, the elastomer ones were used as a bump stop, to give the last bit of travel a bit of resistance.

I take it, it's these you're replaceing, and not planning on using these as the main spring?
 
Sorry ,yes ,i know an amp uses springs

:o :lol: :lol:
Im posting
LOOK- REPLACEMENT ELASTOMERS FOR SOMEONE[not me as i use 'steel' springs]
 
I'm looking in to getting some Ti springs done for mine, i know a guy who winds springs for cars, any rate/length, and he's looking in to it for me.

I'll let you know how i get on.
 
Aren't custom wound, a bit of an expensive route to take?
Springs are used by the million worldwide ,can't see a major manafactuer having springs wound ,they'd prob' buy in the correct part from a spring maker
I need a 350-400lbs spring that has known sizes a=outside diameter b=inside diameter c=length d= compression
Give the measurements to the company and they'll have dozens like it
Cost for two? prob' less than £10
Or sent off to God knows where the, States ,Canada,Europe etc,etc
Pay for the parts[including the fork makers mark-up],pay for shipping ,pay import taxes,pay,pay,pay then hope it gets to you eventually
