Wilbers fork springs for Triumph Tiger 885 i 99-00

Product details

Wilbers fork spring set, progressive, for Triumph Tiger 885 i, Type T 709, model year 99-00 (fork oil to be ordered separately), with ABE according to application list.

General description

Depending on the application, Wilbers offers progressive or linear fork springs, manufactured from the best and highest quality chrome-silicon steel. For touring and sport touring, we generally recommend a progressive fork spring to optimise response behaviour and increase bottoming-out reserves. Crucially, combine the "Zero Friction" fork springs with the specially developed Wilbers fork oil and ensure the correct air gap for the demcorrespondinge vehicle. If desired, in special cases, an individual setup can be achieved by altering the air gap.
For motorsport applications, we recommend the very lightweight linear chrome-silicon fork springs from Wilbers, which were co-developed with the motorsport team.

"ZERO friction" friction reduction through tumble finishing:
During tumble finishing, the workpieces to be processed, such as Wilbers fork springs, are placed together with an abrasive media specifically designed for this purpose in a vibrating container, known as a trough vibrator.
The vibrations of the container generate a relative movement between the workpiece and the abrasive media, and through constant rubbing, lead to a smoothing of the componentupperfläche. At the end of the process, a fine, shiny surface is achieved.
For Wilbers fork springs, this reduction in surface roughness means a minimisation of friction = ZERO friction.

Each fork spring set includes a recommendation for the viscosity of the fork oil and the height of the air gap in the fork. These values have been determined by experienced Wilbers technicians and ensure optimal riding comfort and feedback at the front wheel.

Note: Please order the fork oil separately.
