Springs are the most critical element of suspension performance. Ideally they should be matched to suit the combined weight of both bike and rider. Correct spring rate will ensure that the bike settles to the ideal ride height to determine the final geometry of the motorcycle.(Rider Sag)
Springs are available in different wire gauges and materials. The best springs are simply manufactured from the highest quality chrome silicon wire and receive hardening and prestressing treatments.
In most cases Shock Treatment springs don't cost any more than lesser quality units yet have so much more to offer the most meticulous tuner or rider. Combine this with Shock Treatment's stringent demands and technical requirements and you are assured of the finest springs on the market.

- Made from the highest quality chrome silicon spring steel

- Be shot peened, heat treated and preset to length.( set to solid )
- 100% tested prior to supply to the end user.
