BrettS Posted May 6, 2022 Share Recently upgraded from a cheapy hardtail to the Spark 970 have done a few upgrades since receiving it. Silverton 2.0 wheels (Birthday gift) Full GX conversion as well. I think faster rolling tyres and a Syncros Fraser IC SL XC 740mm carbon bar are next. SilverRider, Jackal355, Mongoose! and 17 others 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisF Posted May 7, 2022 Share Time for some TLC for the Blue Beast. EDIT ... and so we learn .... 116 is too short for a 29" .... NO stock of the 126. Got the last KMC from Evobikes, 136. (11 speed, ebike). These stock issues are getting old now .... With 4 off 11 speed bikes at home I will have use for this Shimano chain.

You dont have that 'nanometric' sweetspot that 11spd combos tend to have. ChrisF 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice Friday topic .... is there any difference, other than the packaging, between good chains and ebike chains .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congratulations man, it is an awesome bike, I miss my one 😪 just one thing, if/when you can, a fork upgrade, to something like a Pike, Fox 34 or something along those lines, transforms it from a good bike to an absolutely AMAZING bike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
