I did notice how that spring - a 'progressive' one with variable resistance - came out of that leg the wrong way. Consequently you put it back the same wrong way. The idea is that you want as little mass on the moving part of the fork, enabling it to absorb the smaller bumps without transferring (much) of that energy upwards and hence to you. It also makes for a better continuing contact between the wheel and the road. For the progresivness of the spring action it does not make any difference how you install the spring. Thank you for going through the trouble of making these videos.
Just one Cornetto, give it to me, delicious ice cream of Italy, the nuts and chocolate dream, give me Cornetto from Walls Ice Cream!!! .....great video, many thanks for taking the time out to do this.
