what offset fork does the Jefsy 29 use ?

 

Any idea on frame pricing ?

I don't think the frames are sold separately in SA.

Friend has that exact bike....just keep an eye on the brakes as they had a warranty issue with the pistons binding/locking....overall she is exceptionally happy with the bike and rides it like it is stolen

So I have had Jeffsy for a while now and after completing the Berg and Bush I decided Jeffsy needed some love and attention.

 

Originally a 2016 Jeffsy AL, I wanted to save some weight (was close to 15kg's when i did B&B) and improve some performance. After all the changes I realised today the only original parts left are the frame, fork, shock, dropper, stem and rotors. Weight as pictured with cages and pedals is 13.73kg size large.

 

Upgrades:

  • Full XT M8000 incl brakes and trail pedals
  • Stans Arch MK3's on Hope Pro 4 hubs with Alpina bladed spokes and brass nipples
  • Fabric saddle
  • Vittoria Barzo 29x2.25 (these were just available so testing them and will then find something wider that doesn't weight as much as me)
  • 780mm raw matte carbon bar
  • Blue stans stickers

Only thing left is to get stealth fork decals

Very nice! Always was a fan of the black blue. You say you had it for a while... how long did it take before upgrading? Honestly when I look at my bike, then there is like nothing I can think of that I need to upgrade, or even just prefer to upgrade.

You mean when NOT on the bike... then the desires say "you need upgrading"  :whistling:

Gorgeous!

 

Just one thing to remember regarding the rubber: 2.5" or GTFO! That bike deserves nice and meaty rubber.

Are the wider rims like 30mm outer rim width, necessary on these bikes?  Capra, Jeffsey etc.

I've gone 26mm internal with because the bike can't really fit wider than 2.5-2.6 rubber. Definitely better and lighter than the OEM 22mm m1900 rims. I don't know that 30mm internal is really necessary as you can't fit 2.8 tyres afaik (stans wideright etc.).

Love it...but then I’m biased since we have very similar setups, even down to the rim decals, lol. I’m one step ahead with the fork decals though: https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/168700-everyting-yt/?p=3202611

Any of you guys experience the bolts becoming undone by themselves at the pivot points?

 

Also, how does one torque the bolts located at the top of the seat stays. I cannot get a tool in there, even if I remove the shock.

If you are referring to the Jeffsy then yes. We have 2 Jeffsy's in our riding group and both have issues with the Pivot points, specifically the forward shock mount.
