DJR Posted December 22, 2018 Share Explain the chain tension on that bike to me?Single pivot design with the pivot at the BB, so whole rear triangle is one piece and since it pivots from the BB, the chainstay length does not change as the suspension moves.

DJR Posted December 23, 2018 Share I sold this one...I find it interesting how a design that is about 20 years old, can still look so good and ride so well. I really would not mind to have one in the 29er version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJR Posted December 23, 2018 Share I see my memory isn't all that bad. The first Superlight will have its' 20th birthday in 2019! Where the hell did the time go? (Sorry for going on about aluminium bikes, but my prediction is that in 20 years time there will be a thred about "Aluminium is Real" ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairy Posted December 23, 2018 Share Now you will just have to get a certain Mr Mercer to weld you up a lovely steel single pivot trail bike I see my memory isn't all that bad. The first Superlight will have its' 20th birthday in 2019! Where the hell did the time go?
