Nice! A local NZ suspension place wants $200 just for the mounts to fit an eye to eye shock as the 9 has the reactiv trunnion shock, the 7 already has those mounts?
9 comes with a 150mm, mates 7 has a 125mm, same size M frames so a 7 will take a 180mm, really liked the extra drop today. Yup its a great package, looking forward to the motor update to make it even more of a weapon.
Am running a 2.6 Assegai up front with a 2.6 dhf on rear, might get an Assegai...
Gotta stop pounding the credit card....got a 108t engagement kit for the Bontrager hub, an 8 tooth spider ring socket for changing ring gear and a new 180mm Oneup dropper arriving today so I can slam the seat on the Rail 9 ?
So after 3rd ride on my new 9 I'm so so glad I took a punt on it after coming from a 19 Trance e1....I f*#king love this bike!!
It is more different than the Trance than I expected, love the Bosch motors power delivery (about to get better with update), I like to spin, something the Yamaha did...
Any thoughts about a Fox dpx2 non trunnion? Had the Factory on my Trance and loved it. Am thinking there wouldn't be much that would interfere.
Is there a kit available for top and bottom eye mounts that I assume has through bolts and bushings?
Have only ridden the 9 once in slippery conditions...
I don't have any friends on accoustic bikes....I prefer to mix with my own kind ? Am I allowed to say that these days? Is there pc rules or bikism I dont know about ??
My Trance that I've just sold had all the torque down low and did 2000km on a chain and cassette, definitely less gear changing on climbs compared to mate on bosch bike, shifting under power def hurts components more than a bit more torque on its own. In my head I'm happy to have slightly more...
Seems the biggest bike company in the world hired the cheapest software developers they could find ? or they only test on Apple platforms ?
1.4.2 seems most useful for Android users.
