A rear spring matched to rider and load keeps the chassis attitude where the factory intended it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree length 270 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePowder-coated yellow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeasured spring rate 56 N\/mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e140 mm of usable stroke\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight-wound, constant rate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInner diameter 57 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eÖhlins part number 00596-12\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow Öhlins Makes Them\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eÖhlins publishes recommended sag figures for its springs, so the setup has a reference rather than a feel. Production has stayed in Sweden since the company was founded in 1976. Materials read unremarkably on paper — aluminium, steel, nitrogen — and the difference lies in how precisely they are made.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSize and Rate\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 57 mm bore and 270 mm length are the two figures that decide whether it physically fits; 56 N\/mm decides whether it suits the rider.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhere This Rate Belongs\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA middle rate balances support against compliance, which is why Öhlins uses it as the baseline. A mid rate balances support under braking against compliance over the surface, which is why it is the usual starting point. This is the middle of Öhlins' range — the rate most riders of average weight end up on once sag is set properly. Ride quality on the road is decided by rate first and damping second.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRate and the Linkage\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eStatic sag at the rear sets the whole chassis attitude — get it wrong and the front geometry goes with it. Rear spring rate sets ride height and static sag, and those two decide the chassis attitude before any damping click matters. The damper can only control the spring it is given; the wrong rate makes every setting a compromise.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eÖhlins offers rates in defined steps so a change can be made in one direction at a time rather than by guesswork. This is a service part in the proper sense — it wears, it settles, and replacing it restores what the suspension was designed to do. A workshop will pick this spring from its dimensions and the rider's weight, not from a fitment table.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat Fitting Involves\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eÖhlins supplies a setting sheet with the springs; the numbers on it assume the specified oil. Note the original oil level before draining — it is a useful reference even when Öhlins specifies its own. Once fitted, ride the machine before making damping changes: the new rate alters what the clicks do.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRoad Approval\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRoad approval: no separate certificate. The spring changes the rate, not the construction of the fork, and is treated as a service part.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitting and Setup Service\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eÖhlins components deliver what they promise once they are fitted and set up properly.
