Just finished my sons (L) Kenevo looks amazing.
took some quick measurements before and after..
Boxxer 29” forks are set to full 200mm Travel ,
BB to ground : Lyric 180mm = 273mm Boxxer 29” = 278mm
Head tube to ground : Lyric 180mm = 973 mm (Boxxer 29") = 973 mm
Under side of bars to ground...
Think it’s the image , we are fitting the forks Friday when we have the wheels I am going to upload lots of pics and measurements as we fit. I think with full 200m travel it will add around 15mm as triple clamp crown is less with a little more sag maybe 10mm
I have fixed the creaking , removed seat from post , removed the clamps from seat post , cleaned the seat and clamps and all parts were clamps connect. Added the Park Tool ASC-1 Anti-Seize Compound Tool also pulled up post from the frame (as much as it would go without removing leaver and cables...
All over the place BPW / Forest of Dean / Black Mounting / Cwcan / 417 etc. Triple clamp just felt so much better after going from XT to DH and much more forgiving to me when I case a jump (as I do all the time) its not because I am a killer DH rider thats for sure . but I think (hope) the...
We are going to run full 200mm travel , if I find a problem with adjusted frame angle I will add a little more sag maybe10mm or so ,but for what I have read the bike performs well with increased bottom bracket hight. Less pedal bashing (i hope)
Problem with Fox 40's is they are now 29"or Boost so you would have to have none boost hub and also not be able to run a 2.8 even 2.6 in the UK with heavey mud would be a push. The new Boxxer 29"RC or WorldCup version will work well , only pain is front Hub needs to be 20mm, so new front wheel...
So the Demo 8 (which was my last bike) Head tube is 112mm in S/M/L. The Kenevo is S 100mm / M 110mm / L 120mm / XL 130mm
My Kenevo is (M) my Sons is (L) we have cut Both forks down the same , I am using 3x 5mm spacers under top crown (same as my old Demo 8) with the Zero rise DM Stem and...

I order some (new)bargains from Ebay Raceface Atlas Direct Mount MTB 35mm x 50mm Mountain Bike Stem - Black (Zero Rise) £49...
I agree my son also said the slide predictably and he is flying down.. for me after 3 outing with the MM DH on the front its much better and hasn't washed out once , but I am sitting off back a little to much for sure. but the new front grip is really nice maybe go back to stock tyres in a...
Hi All this rear shock talk is very interesting can we start it on another thread ? will be hard for people to follow with the current heading . also I am going to try to add as much detail on the Fork Upgrade to make this the place to come for that step by step update..
