Hey everyone, rat rod this mountain bike that i got for 10 bucks at my local police bike auction and I'm rat rodding it. Paint the wheels Chevy orange red to give it that typical rat rod look. Paint the frame a gloss black and the rear swing arm. Not sure on the front fork yet, whether to shine it up to a dull silver like i did the bars and the cranks. But my real reason I'm here is I'm wondering if any companies make a spring light than 200 lbs/in. Want this bike to roll like my moms Cadillac with a nice smooth ride.

If any one knows of anyone that does please reply, I still have yet to check my local bicycle shops, because i dont have a bike rolling to get down to them.
 
I'm not sure if you can buy them new with that low of a spring rate, but you can check some of the cheaper dual-spring kid's bikes, I'm sure they're not as stiff as the adult ones. Good luck!
