[QUOTE="RaYzerman19, post: 1325223, member: 18388"] I'm missing something, dunno what it is.... we don't know what your RT spring length is, but if typical of the length of the ones I've done, with 15mm of preload, for 40mm of sag (for your weight depending on spring rate you chose), I cut about 33-ish mm off the spacers. Calcs done with preload flush to bottom of fork cap. You cut more and I'm not quite getting why you have LESS sag. Crank your preload all the way down to simulate a longer spacer, see what sag you get. [/QUOTE]
