For those curious how the difference in spring rate is determined, here's our calculations/equation*:

[(TB^4)/(25.4^4)]*100 = % stiffness of OEM AHC 1160mm 25.4mm bar

[(TB^4)/(25.4^4)]*100 = % stiffness of OEM AHC 1210mm 25.5mm bar

*metallurgy also determines spring rate. Given the unknowns about each manufacturer's material, these rates are merely estimates.
**some OE non-AHC 1160mm bars have been measured at differing diameters according to mud threads in the past.
