I'll kick it off with a tech Q. I bought the AL Jeffsy which comes with a Monarch R. I like lockout on long climbs so want to get an RL or RT3 version. My shock is tuned to M/L3. My question is for those Jeffsy owners with the lockout Monarchs...is your tune the same?

Where do i put a second water bottle?

On your back :D

 

Hydration was obviously not top of the priority list during design phase.

 

Luckily I'm a Camelbak fan so don't have this issue.

All I want to know is that they will change for the 2018 Capra, I like the new scott 29/27.5 design...

Too much stool not enough pictures!

 

Here is my Jeffsy AL, upgraded to 1x1 XT and sporting some pimping new fabric grips.

Stool ?

Changed the saddle to a Spez Power.

 

Next will be front tyre to Minion if I can find one... And the grips need to go as well

Anyone know if a M/M tune monarch plus will work on the Jeffsy?

Don't know. What I do know is that YT's frames' leverage curves do not play nice with a lot of air shocks. Best to get in touch with YT.

I'm quite curious to hear what fellow Jeffsy riders are using as lower downtube/ bottom bracket protection. I was quite surprised to find that the bike didn't come with a hard plastic sump guard like in the attached photo.

 

I'd also dig to hear how a set of wider rims has improved the ride. I'm loving this whip right now but rims and Onza tyres are probably gonna go soon.

 

Cheers

I use super thick clear vinyl , like 90 bucks for 1x2m sheet from maizies 

 

 

Wider rim will give A better tyre profile and In teory reduce tyre roll , but you can go too wide.

 

A few hubbers with better understandings of the correlation between the two will coment shortly
