My experience with Öhlins is a rear shock that came on my XL Demo with too light of a spring. Dunbar wasn’t able to mount a heavy enough spring on it for me so I replaced the shock with an ‘09 Fox DHX 5.0 “temporarily”. My Öhlins has been an expensive paperweight for the last 6 months as a result of the minor inconvenience of having to go to a shop that can compress the heavier springs to get them on the shock.
