Can someone tell me if i've got the conversion of these spring rates correct or not?

Front = 14 mm/100 kg
Rear = 16.2 mm/100 kg


therefore;


100/14 = 7.14kg/mm = 399.8 Ib/in or 70 N/mm
100/16.2 = 6.17kg/mm = 345.5 Ib/in or 60.5 N/mm

Am i correct or have i got it completely wrong? These bloody French mm/100kg units do my head in!

Cheers in advance.

You can use Google to calculate stuff like this. Try "searching" for:

100/14 kgf/mm in N/mm
