Well,I posted a few times on those Fintec springs I wasnt quite happy with.Well,as it happened Ben Harris wanted to be able to clear speed humps and to get some comfort back,as was running -40mm PIs.
I had just come off PIs and wanted the handling back as I found the Fintecs not sporty enough for my tastes.Also I found the brakes werent as sharp,naturally.
Looks wise,these springs do seem to follow a slightly different design,as this silly photo Ben couldnt resist taking shows us!

My 480's been in need of a wash for quite while now. I must treat her to one soon (and a new windscreen, too - nice big crack in my current one!).
Here's a closer comparison of the springs: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v11/b ... fintec.jpg
