Wilbers fork springs - BMW R12
Product information "Wilbers fork springs - BMW R12"
Wilbers fork springs Zero Friction for BMW R12
with ABE
The BMW R12 comes from the factory with a very short spring travel of just 90 mm at the front.
Doesn't sound tragic at first - but in practice this means that the fork quickly reaches its limits.
This results in the following problems in practice:
- Too much negative suspension travel
-
Air chamber volume too small
-
Only a small part of the travel can be used comfortably
- This leads to the fork bottoming out relatively quickly.
This is exactly where the Wilbers fork springs come in. Thanks to the adapted spring, optimised preload and a larger air chamber, the short stroke of the fork is optimally utilised.
Your advantages with Wilbers fork springs

Better response behaviour - the fork reacts more sensitively and in a more controlled manner
-
More comfort - can also be used on poor tarmac
-
No bottoming out - the suspension travel is utilised more effectively

Additional accessories
- Wilbers fork oil - New fork oil is required to refill the fork. You can find suitable Wilbers oil under the accessory products below the product description. We recommend 7.5 oil for the R12
