Under braking a soft spring lets the fork run through its stroke and the geometry with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeasured spring rate 10.0 N\/mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eÖhlins part number 08672-10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInner diameter 38 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e134 mm of usable stroke\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTapered-wound, constant rate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupplied as a pair\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree length 235 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the Rate Holds\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRates are offered in defined steps, so a change can be made in one direction at a time. Anodising is hard-coat rather than decorative, which matters on a component exposed to road salt and stone chips. Shafts are hardened and surface-treated so the seal has a consistent surface to run against.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSize and Rate\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eÖhlins holds the free length at 235 mm and the inner diameter at 38 mm across this rate range, so moving up or down a rate changes nothing about the installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing 10.0 N\/mm\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSupport under braking improves; small-bump comfort gives a little back. A firm rate keeps the fork high in its stroke under braking, which preserves the geometry when the front is loaded hard. Firm rates trade some small-bump comfort for support — the right trade on a good surface at speed. Road surfaces are the hardest test of a spring rate, because the fork has to cope with both a smooth stretch and a broken one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSag figures, not feel, decide whether a rate is right. Öhlins publishes the targets for its own units. There is no model list for this size because the spring is a dimensional part: it fits whatever fork it physically fits. The safest way to choose is by static sag: set the target figure, and the rate follows from whether you can reach it with preload.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eÖhlins part numbers are stamped on the packaging rather than the spring, so keep the label with the setup notes. Öhlins supplies a setting sheet with the springs; the numbers on it assume the specified oil. Öhlins states an air gap for this application, and that figure is part of the setting rather than a detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRoad Approval\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRoad approval: a spring is a like-for-like replacement of a wear part and carries no separate type approval. Where Öhlins states an approval for a particular motorcycle, it is named under Applications.\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.
