I need a little help here! when setting up my rear sag i can get the measurement to where it needs to be between 95 100 mm of sag (unloaded to full rider weight difference) however the static sag i guess its called whern the bike sits on its on weight is my problem it sags to me what seems to much jeff fredette says to try and get about 24- 26 mm here! how is that possible? if i tighten the spring down(preload) then i dont get enough race sag could someone please help quick?

Sounds like you need a lighter rate spring for your weight. (One spring rate only covers a selected weight range of individuals.)

put an stock 89 spring on and got right on with the static sag of 25 mm but can only obtain 90mm of race sag with out messing up the other is this close enough?
