K-Tech linear shock springs are manufactured from the highest grade chrome silicone wire, each spring is cold-coiled, heat-treated, pre-set and ground to length.
Phosphate coating is then applied to protect against corrosion and then powder coated before the part number is applied. All springs are manufactured to DIN 2095 grade1.
Linear-rate springs are evenly wound from top to bottom so that the force (road surface bumps and potholes, acceleration and braking) remains the same from the initial input right through to when the springs won’t compress any further whereas progressive springs are wound closer at one end and further apart at the other.
Linear springs give you the ability to fine tune the suspension closer to your specific weight, rather than using progressive springs which will always be a compromise as they are manufactured to work over a much wider weight range.
The K-Tech Suspension R&D team have developed these springs over a period of extensive research and testing on the KOVE 450 Rally for KOVE MOTO UK.
The standard shock spring supplied with the KOVE 450 Rally is rated at 61N
All springs have their rate laser etched on the end and are manufactured to DIN 2095 grade 1.
