In nomad non è equipaggiato con il dhx.....
Il dhx che può essere montato sul nomad è 216 con molla di primo montaggio da 2.5.
Inficiando la garanzia si può montare anche il 222 che monta come molla di primo montaggio una 2.75
Vediamo, con ordine:
il nomad esce anche equipaggiato col dhx coil, basta pagare la differenza. Esce con una molla da 2,5".
Di seguito quello che si dice su tft tuned su come ordinare la molla : durezza x corsa dell'ammo ( non della molla )
orig: What do the spring rate figures mean?
The spring rate is the amount of force necessary in pounds to compress the spring one inch. When you order a spring you need to order the right spring rate together with the shock stroke eg 450 x 2.75 (where 450 is the springrate & 2.75 is the shock stroke)
di seguito le info che ho trovato sulle molle in titanio progressive ( la stessa che ho montato io , durezza a parte )
orig : Genuine Progressive Suspension brand
5th Element
Titanium mountain bike shock spring.
This spring will also fit the FOX DHX and vanilla range of shocks.
Specifications:
Spring Rate: 350lb/in - 56.9N/mm - 5.8Kg/mm
Free Length: 5.85in - 149mm
Travel/Stroke: 2.50in - 64mm
Inside Diameter: 1.40in - 35.5mm (standard)
Outside Diameter: 2.10in - 53mm
Weight: 272.4g (yes, VERY light!)
If your not sure about this spring get in touch and i,ll advice you on wether it will fit you shock i have owned lots of bikes over the last 10 yrs and am happy to help, This spring is built for a shock with a 215mm I2I which means the distance between the centres of your bolt holes, from the approximate centre of one bolt hole to the approximate centre of the other if it,s 215/6 or there abouts then this will fit your frame.
Ultra light and World Class action - get this awesome upgrade for your shock at a bargain price. This Ti Spring fits several different shocks, from several different manufacturers - too many to list, and I'm not going to try. Using the specifications listed above, you should be able to verify fitment for your particular application (you likely know what spring you're looking for). If you are uncertain, please check your shock manufacturer's website for "optional" spring dimensions & rates - or perhaps contact them directly. If this is not the spring you need, please check my other listings for other sizes and rates. If the spring you need is not listed, then I do not have it - and I can't get it (sorry).
1. The Stroke of your shock - This is the actual travel of the shock itself. To measure this, measure the visible part of the shock shaft in Inches 1" = 25.4mm (This is the part that disappears as the shock compresses). Remember, the bumper on the shaft will compress so be sure to measure the full metal-to-metal stroke - not merely the bumper contact.
2. The Maximum Spring Free length that your shock will take - To do this wind the preload off completely and measure from the inside of the spring collar to the inside of the preload nut.
3. Spring rate in Lbs. - Spring rate refers to the stiffness of the spring and will vary due to rider weight, riding style/discipline, Leverage ratio of the bike, and suspension design. As a general rule you are trying to achieve the correct amount of sag. Sag is the amount your suspension travels when you're sitting on your seat, feet on your pedals and hands on the bars. This should be around 1/3 of the total travel on a DH bike and 1/4 of the total travel on an XC All mountain bike (This can vary due to suspension design and personal preference).
la molla da 2,25 sul nomad non va bene, troppo corta.
La molla da 3" sul nomad non va bene, troppo lunga. L'ho montata sull'ammo del v10 ( 222 ) e va bene appena appena.
La molla da 2,75 dovrebbe starci, ma devi verificare la lunghezza.
In teoria sono d'accordo con il discorso di Kaio, salvo che, ad occhio, la molla marcata come 2,5 ha ben più di 2,5" di corsa. Questo pare di capire anche da quanto scritto su tftuned, cioè che sulla molla non è riportato lo stroke della molla, che immagino sia lo spazio di cui si può comprimere prima che le spire sbattano tra di loro, ma la corsa dell'ammo su cui si può montare.
spero di aver ragione, altrimenti tra un po' mi esploderà tra le mani
