I spoke with Richard, who was really helpful. He said he could supply a 7.5Nmm but that it was 260mm long. However, if I let them have my forks, they would make an alternative preload spacer so that the shorter springs would work in my forks.

So, come the end of season, that's what I'll do and I'll report back on the results in due course.
Teut tested my springs and they came out at 8.5 ish he said he wouldn't recommend a lighter spring, I'll be interested in your results.
