Can someone tell me what colour (if any) the lyrik u turn soft spring is

I'm around the 66/67kg mark and feel the standard spring is just too firm.

Now these springs are proving very hard to get hold of. Some people have said it's only the non u turn springs are coloured and the u turn springs aren't?!

(which does tally up with the tftuned page: http://www.tftuned.com/lyrik/c124

But then this rockshox chart:

Seems to suggest it's also yellow for the soft u turn??

Anyone help?

We had a 2 step air converted to u turn coil by TF last year. They fitted a soft spring which was too firm, at the time I was told that it was a yellow one, its now fitted with an extra soft spring. Still cant get full travel on them so they are now our spare set.

Does that mean you're selling the soft one?

No TF managed to source an extra soft one so they did a swap with it.
We struggled as did TF to source the extra soft spring. I was pointed to a bike web site in Poland who were showing U turn springs but when I rang them they were very unsure about the stock they had. Did find one on ebay in America but it worked out too much with the postage

I bought a spring from 26bikes.com I think its based in Poland but it only took a week to arrive. All springs have the weight rating and spring was sourced in 2 days.

No problem.

Can anyone tell me does the lyrik share the same spring as the other models.

Pretty much no chance, the uturn spring has all the uturn gubbinz built in, boxxer spring is just a spring. I think at the dawn of time there was a uturn boxxer but it's a 32 so if it fits it'd be a miracle. Boxxers and Lyriks are pretty similiar in a lot of ways though so maybe you could fit a uturn to a boxxer or use a standard boxxer spring in a standard lyrik, no idea about that
