Ohlins Fork Fluid - 1 Liter (2 required for a proper fluid service)
01330-01
OHLINS Fork Fluid Product Features:
Öhlins has developed high-quality oils for its fork spring kits. They include a range of fork oils which will increase the performance of original telescopic and upside-down forks. The different viscosities available make it possible to select the most suitable oil. (7.5W for 250L and 20W for the Rally)
What distinguishes Öhlins fork oil from conventional oils is that it reduces friction, stays cleaner, has a long service life, and is highly resistant to foaming (known as cavitation). Together with the front fork springs from Öhlins, a considerable improvement in the responsiveness and performance of an original fork can be achieved.
Note: 2 quarts/liters required to completely change the fluid

This product is an extra heavy-duty spring (75 Nm/mm- 7.65Kg/mm) for 225 lb-260 lb riders (102-118 kg) for the CRF 250L Rally Ohlins shock for 225-260lb riders (109-122 kg)
DOES NOT FIT THE STOCK SHOCK and does not fit the 250L!
If you are ordering this spring at the same time as the shock, we can install it for you for $85. please see the spring install service on our site and add it to your cart.
PLEASE NOTE: Unfortunately, no heavier springs are available for the stock shock. Plus the stock shock rebound damping is way too light and that would make it unsafe to ride with a stiffer spring (it could easily rebound you over the handlebars on certain types of bumps off-road), so the only proper solution is to upgrade the stock shock as the stock suspension is set up for a beginner 120 lb rider and is not adjustable. It’s probably OK if you are just riding on the street with no cargo or passenger, but if you plan to go off-road at all the suspension will need to be upgraded.
