Yo Rico .... is that your final seat height vs handle bar height?

 

So have you ridden her in anger yet and if so how does she handle?

Yeah on the climbs I run it that height,enduro collar on the reverb goes down about 75% travel.Im 6ft 3, Bars are flat and that stem is short so no real rise. Handles like a dream, It even jumps well. Its 12.7 kgs now but rides alot lighter in feel if you know what I mean. It picks up speed and carries it through the rough stuff really well. And I run the rear on full plush setting 90 % of the time there is virtually no bob

Very nice Braailegend ..... I really like the raw alu and white/black detailing with the yellow hubs!

 

Does she ride as good as she looks?

Rides much better than she looks! My first full sus, must just get the bunnyhops dialled now. not used to suspension sucking all my bunnyhop energy.

 

And I think all bikes should have a colour scheme, gives some personality

[Unclerico]

im running 2x10 38-26. with a 11-36 cassette

I run 2x9

 

Front 36T & 28T with a bashguard in the place of the bigest ring, and a little roller to help with chain tension

 

On the rear I have an 11-34T cassette.

 

For KZN and CT and other hilly areas a 2xWhatever may be needed, but in JHB I think I 36T with a chainguide will take you pretty much anywhere

thanks dude. Have been wondering about what the advantages are for doing just that.

 

I am sick of losing the chain on my trail/AM bike. can I fit a chain tensioner to a 3X9?
