Trail springs absolutely remove the odd pedaling sensation that I experienced, but according to Rimpact they also decrease the chain dampers ability to absorb energy from the chain. I'll be honest... I haven't been able to "feel" the difference between the hard springs and soft springs on the trail yet. I'd really like to do a back-to-back day with laps on the stiff springs, soft springs, with a normal chainring, and an Ochain, but I just haven't done it yet. It's been hard for me to parse out what I'm feeling without that sort of back-to-back testing.

11/5/2025 12:42pm Thanks for the update 🙂 I've seen Rimpact's claims of less pedaling sensation and changing the absorbtion to more smaller to medium hits 🤷🏻 I've reached out to someone with the same bike as me and he's a big fan so I may take the plunge Thanks again

11/4/2025 11:15pm Hey Teamrobot, I've been down a bit of a rabbit hole and considering this for my Geometron G1 but I'm concerned about the pedalling sensation so created a profile for this very question. Any further thoughts about the trail springs? I've been in contact with Rimpact and annoyingly they don't include both sets of springs with a new kit Thanks...
