Which Wilbers?

Post by ptm »

For those of you with Wilbers shocks, which type would you recommend for the rear - the 640, 641 or 642 ?
The roads around my neck of the woods are not brilliant with a good wet season leaving its share of pot holes.
Most of my riding is 1 up (70 kg / 155 lbs) around town with occasional longer trips with paniers on.
These days my riding style is fairly sedate.
At first glance the 640 should suit my needs, as I am not one for tinkering too much with high and low speed compression adjusters.
In any case I would be getting the hydraulic spring load adjuster.
