I have a herrman crf hybrid that i just got, it has a no link rear. there is an elka dual rate on it, what i need is a heavier spring or springs, just wondering if anyone has one laying around they arent using. obviously i dont know whats on it, but it is setup for a 165 lb a rider, and im 200. rode it today for the first time, and its too soft. if i need to get shock measurements i can.

i have a brand new hypercoil spring. i dont remember its weight anymore, but i can tell you its a hefty one. it has a number on it that i cant remember right now but ill let you know tomorrow. it is for a dual rate axis, but will work on an elka. ill get the measurements tomorrow if you are interested.

sorry it took so long to get the measurements, been busy. it is 8and 1/4 long or so, 2 and 3/8 inside diameter, and is a 500 weight spring. should be perfect for your application. let me know, Corey

I have an elka shock for your application that is setup for what you need. it is apart, needs a preload ring (because this one was knurled, and a new hose for the resi. But the rest of the shock is like new. I'll sell it for 200.00 bucks Its a zps shock triple rate, smokin deal.

so i would have to have it sent out to get fresh oil etc then?

For 250.00 I'll put it back together, bleed and charge it. All the seals are good. Like I said it was hardly used I bought it new. It was my spare. I can try to get pics if you want

sorry the only reason it needs a line is because it was routed wrong and got pinched between the spring.
