squishy forks? since its the middle of the summer i would just wait for now, add more damping and more preload instead. then when you get some money in the winter you should change the fluid and install new springs for your weight.
also for maintenance, change your brake fluid if you haven’t done so in awhile
that price aint bad. i paid $200 for Q2’s at CycleGear, then paid $130 to have them installed by a shop.
