Will it mess them up completely? I have the Megans. I have been told the Megans will be ok and that it’s other makes that will be destroyed by winter.

they might rust and size up… it’s a risk to do it.

most coilovers state somewhere to never use them below freezing, you will most likly ruin them.

Currently still riding on my D2’s.

Rode them last year in -35 temperatures.

They are still fine.

See I heard the D2’s were more prone to malfuction than Megans, when it comes to running them in winter. But yes, it probably is more cost effective to spend a day on them.
