Default spring rates

Hi, i got myself a set of big bores for my X2C and i could'nt find any info on them either. Could'nt even find anywhere to buy them!!!

I got told that most people use Losi springs so thats what i settled for.

I realise you're a team driver so th8is might not apply to you.

Yer, at the moment i have Losi spring on my 4wd running big bores but im running the small shocks on the 2wd. So am really trying to figure those out mainly. Looks like ill have to do the tests myself and figure what they are roughly.

Thanks anyway though. Sad news that you've tried already with no joy. I'll post my finding when i get round to doing the testing

So the rear are a lot softer than the std black or purple.

The front is the opposed though, Softer bigbore (#3) are still harder than the Blue.

Rear #2 are about the same as the yellow losi
