Motorcycle Fork Rebound Top Out & Balance Springs

Teknik Rebound / Balance Spring

Rebound / Balance Spring

Rebound and balance springs prevent fork "topout" and smooth the transition in modern air and oil damped forks. These top out coil springs and thin wire balance springs reduce sudden jolting forces, firm up the soft initial rate of pneumatic forks and make suspension more predictable. Reb topout springs are replaceable to match rider weight and tuning changes; see our spring selection guide and tools below for setup and adjustments.

Purpose and tuning benefits of rebound and balance springs

  • Stops topout damage by cushioning the end of the rebound stroke
  • Linearises the initial spring rate on air forks for predictable ride
  • Allows stiffer rates or higher gas pressures for heavier riders
  • Replaceable reb topout springs for race and setup flexibility

Recommended Pairings

Use our setup guides and tools: spring selection article, Air Fork Hand Pumps, Gauges & Adaptors, or convert with air to spring fork conversion kits. Consider matching with Suspension Tools.
