I put new 1.1 springs & 7wt oil in mine but did not have the valving changed. I swapped emails & phone calls with Dan at traxxion who was a big help. I think my forks are setup pretty well right now. Rebound seems fine but the compression is a bit stiff on the little stuff. If I soften the compression damping to smooth things a little I start having other handling ills. Traxxion sort of echoed this by saying the compression side needs a little valving work. Naturally the correct springs & sag settings are 90+%. If you choose the correct spring for your type of riding (if you're really AGGRESSIVE street) and setup everything else correctly for your weight, I think you might wish you had had the compression side reworked. I kind of wish it wasn't so much work to change the fork oil. I'd really like to experiment a little more with different oil. I almost went with 10 wt.
