Yep I was just speaking in general terms.Fuel EXE has 16% progressivity and with an extended stroke, the end stroke is completely linear in the added travel. Leverage ratio at the end of travel is 2.16 so you would add 10.8mm of travel when you extend stroke 5mm. A Cane Creek Valt progressive spring would be a great option for this frame.

Not really sure a coil is a good option though. With a slightly digressive curve like that I feel that even a progressive coil isn't great. The bike feels great throughout the entire stroke for me with an air shock with max tokens in and HBO but I still bottom out hard sometimes. I wouldn't want to run this bike with a coil for that reason. Same reason the Rise feels bad with a coil, even with a progressive spring (for me).
