A quick Google would have shown that when the USA is not using metric spring rates they are using pounds/inch.

Yeah I always wondered just because I've seen some insanely high spring rates. 9kg is bloody high let alone someone people who run stuff like 15k and higher. Wondered if for some reason they just have weird spring rates or if it was like kg/inch or something weird alone those lines.

Then consider the spring rates needed to run this: Quote:
Also, given the rear motion ratio of approximately .75 the rate at the rear wheel is a lot less than the given spring rate.
