A cheaper alternative for the trinity springs are the ones you find at the Sears hardware store. They are about the same stiffness. I have the Green, silver and black associated springs for the front. My LHS didn't have the combo packs back then, when I started messing with my Rusto. I love the FLM tranny. I just had to add an extra shim at the topgear. The only things that I have replaced so far, are the FLM bumper, Bulkhead and one rear A-arm. It takes alot to bend/break those FLM pieces. I did leave the bearing carries plastic. It's easier to take them out after a bad crash or wipeout (Bend pins).
