Need to order BB spring and have two choices - the 6.5 and the 7.1 spring. From what I have read on this board I am between the two at 300# and do not ride that aggressively but the trails here can be rough.

I had the 6.5 on my RX-1 which seemed to work well. Advice appreciated.
 
i'm 320 with gear and went with the 7.1 and revalve from carver and ride like stole it 08 apex ltx gt
 
I lost a heat exchanger last year,then learned how to adjust my shock,put it on the 3rd clip cranjed spring tension all the way and still was bottoming out. After paying 300 for new exchanger and wrestleing with it to get it in there what a pain I decided to upgrade this year. Just sent it out to pioneer performance spoke with a guy named Bruce he told me the 6.5 would be good enough but I asked him if I would damage anything with a stronger spring in he said no so I told him to use the 7.1. I'm 220 with gear. I would rather have piece of mind this year. Like the other guys I ride it like a raped ape!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Go hard or go home for me!!!!!!!!! 2 more months!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Thanks guys. The 7.1 it is. Will talk to my dealer this weekend about the revalve.
