I've decided to pull the trigger on an Ohlins suspension for the bike, while I can still get one. I weigh around 230lb without gear, and expect to lose 15-20lb (maybe more) so I'm going to go slightly lighter on spring rates than I might normally consider. According to the Ohlins site, I should get 9N/mm front springs, and from posts on this site, it looks like I should be mounting a 170kg/nm 220mm spring on the rear shock. Do my numbers sound right? What else should I be aware of?
