Front Shock Question

CMGoldie
I have scoured and scoured for this answer and can't find it. I think it may be me being new to doing these types of things.

If you put progressive springs in the front shocks, does it eliminate the need to have air in them? If it does, will you still be required to replace the fork seals? I am planning on doing the seals, but I have read about people having good experiences with the progressive springs. I, however, was unable to find clarification for my question.

Thanks, Goldie

No, you do not need to use air in the forks after installing progressive springs, and no, you do not need to change the seals to install them. Hope that clarify s things.
