Mongooser Posted August 29, 2017 Share I also got to get another one of those bars.I've got one on my bike at the moment, but stupidly cut it down to 720mm when I originally fitted it as I thought that was all I needed.Now I seek at least an extra 20mm on each side. Sent from my SM-J111F using Tapatalki was on 780mms earlier this year,but they were a bit long,outgrown my 740mms and needed the extra length,bike was getting to twitchy BenReaper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stefmeister Posted August 29, 2017 Share Upgraded my db inline to latest version. Hopefully can test it out tomorrow after work. Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkSo manage to dodge a telecom and take it for a spin.Compared to the old db inline, it runs much higher pressure.210 psi @ 25% sag, vs 160 psi @ 30%. I weigh around 74 kg.25% was my starting point, and it already uses most (if not all) of the travel. Although difficult to say as the 63mm stroke is limited to 57mm, but don't think it bottomed out.

Although difficult to say as the 63mm stroke is limited to 57mm, but don't think it bottomed out.Some of these internally spaced shocks can have the stroke extended to the original 63mm as long as the shock at full travel doesn't hit the frame.I know my old Trance uses a 57mm stroke shock but with a 63mm it us the rear travel from 140mm to 157mm, coupled with a 160mm fork it makes it a proper endure rig!!! stefmeister 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoke101 Posted August 29, 2017 Share Thule VeloCompact 925Thule VeloCompact 925.jpg The circled knobs were tightened, and the bolt inside the knob was tightened with a allen key. They became loose somehow so the U-Shaped bar fell over with the bike. It did it twice For some reason that bar was not seating properly. The bike shop assembled and fitted it for me. I was probably stupid for not checking myself, lesson learnt. The bike shop did rectify the issue. The ends of that bar locate in a recess, once that has been done they can be tightened.

You are correct, Trance is a distant memory since getting the new steed though........ Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
