DubbelBuys Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 After too many pivot bearing replacements (3 this year so far) on my Intense 5.5, I got this: Big thanks to Steve from Morewood. Great Service. Great machines & great service from Steve & Morewood! How does the Monarch behave? Which model monarch is it?

missionS Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 Looking awesome MissionS! Thanks I'm constantly taking this bike out for +60km pedals and find myself grabbing this bike more often out of the quiver than any of my other bikes.I don't know how I will ever do this bike justice as she really comes alive when pointed downhill and the going gets fast Amazing what 7" can do in the rear

Brian Fantana Posted January 2, 2013 Posted January 2, 2013 Great machines & great service from Steve & Morewood! How does the Monarch behave? Which model monarch is it? Hi there, The Monarch is behaving very good so far, it is the Monarch RT3 High Volume. I am really satisfied with the suspension performance of the Shova, and my previous frame was an Intense 5.5, so I know more or less how good suspension should feel.

The bike was only built up like that & had to take it out for a few spins just to get the feeling of it before cutting down too much of steerer. Atm I've got only a 15mm spacer in there with the stem upside down too. Feels much better. J

I besides bearing replacements - how does the 5.5 compare to the Shova?
