[Wilmotte, Todd]

Man ... These things are simple to remove but sure are a bitch to reinstall.... I've got the front tire 3" off the ground w/fork completely uncompressed and still can't get the friggin caps back on but now noticed that Fred sent someone a message stating that the new Larry Roesler springs from Progressive have different preloads and to ignore previous discusions via archives pertaining to Progressive springs... Or something to that effect... How was your outing on Saturday.. How was the fishin' Todd
