MajG Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 (edited) So I changed my fork from and old rockshox fork that had oversize steerer where I used giant OD2 stem and spacers etc. Issue now is I replaced fork with normal tapered steerer, replaced the spacers but still play in the headset, guess the inner top headset bearing must be where can I get headset compression bearing 44/56mm, don't want to spend R2k on hope headset etc Edited December 18, 2020 by MajG
MajG Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 Fitted this fork https://www.evobikes.co.za/product/2018-rockshox-reba-rl-solo-air-120mm-29-15-fork-tapered-steerer-crown-lockout/
MajG Posted January 15, 2021 Posted January 15, 2021 For the Momsen STR folks and the hubbers who love tan sidewalls I fell in love riding this over my dual suspension Mountain Bru, DR ◣◢, Stalen Ros and 2 others 5
Rigardt@Scott Posted January 15, 2021 Posted January 15, 2021 For the Momsen STR folks and the hubbers who love tan sidewalls I fell in love riding this over my dual suspensionVery good looking build. The tan sidewalls work so well with the paint on that frame. A steel hardtail built right is special... Hairy 1
MajG Posted January 15, 2021 Posted January 15, 2021 Very good looking build. The tan sidewalls work so well with the paint on that frame. A steel hardtail built right is special...Thanks man! I was skeptical at first, but they go well with the green Steel frame also handles so much different to an alu frame, I'm enjoying it Rigardt@Scott and Hairy 2

TKG Posted September 1, 2021 Posted September 1, 2021 Anyone got a sense of minimum rotor size on the rear of an STF?

I want to beef up my momsen str to be more enduro capable. 1) i want to add more tavel from 120 to maybe 140 or 150 mm with more sag. Just to make it more sensitive and able to take some of the abuse. I am just afraid that the 69 degree head angle wont be able to handel the longer travel. 2) i would also like to uograde the rims from 23mm rims to 30 mm rims. I am just not sure of it will fit in the frame even with the dropouts all the way to the back. Would really appreciate it if anyone can give some advice or info on what is possible on this bike Maybe have a look at the commencal meta ht

This is what I had in mind Not sure what setup you are going for, but mine is a bit of a heavier duty trail hardtail style, and just makes you want to go faster, upgraded brakes really quickly as just didnt have enough power, just love the handling etc
