Overview
The Team Associated 16mm Front Springs 4.65 lb/in Black are part of the new 1.5D wire spring lineup developed for ungroomed and bumpy track surfaces. This spring lineup was specifically designed for conditions like DNC and Silver State where traction is at a premium.
The 1.5mm wire diameter provides a different natural frequency compared to 1.6mm springs, allowing the spring to more easily compress and conform to the track surface in lower grip conditions.
