Progressive spring

Recommended Posts

The question is - if i ride on my own, no luggage, about 95kg rider weight including kit - would progressive springs from Hyperpro be good? Or is it better to get harder linear springs?

I like jumping and going fast offroad, so on stock springs bottoming out badly...

I like softness of suspension on tarmac, so leaning towards progressive springs to have this softness on tarmac and be protected from bottoming out on jumps?

For off road riding, especially faster speeds, then a linear is the way to go, progressive is mainly for road riding or lowering the bike.
