I did my focus with trial and error too. Mine had play because the hinge pin was actually bent. I was able to straighten it in the vice. A little play allows this to bend because of the harsh banging back and forth.
It can only be two or four and I would do two first. This is only necessary if you move the axle and flip the chip. Remember to check and notice how slack your chain is, lowest gear, no weight on bike, with the old setup in place. This will stop you from being tempted to remove more links later...
Ok thanks for the info. I can't get a piggyback air shock in there either. I've already smoked a Fox dps, next time a rock shox maybe but this bike won't accept anything heavy duty which is a shame.
Stu, what happens when you turn that shock upside down ? Will it still fit ? There's no room for the Piggy back on a medium frame in the position that you have it....
It will make you a fraction slower than your riding buddies, unless the bike shop can or will change the settings. (It's still debatable as to whether this is possible) Mine has been done twice but to no effect. You will need to shorten the chain and fit the other brake caliper mount if you are...
Hi Guys,
Any body know where I can buy a kd325920053 chain guide for the Focus Jam2 6.8. Google searches only lead to the various online exploded diagrams, where I traced the part number from.
So what happened ? Mine won't finish rides and let me delete. The kiox, the app and the site are all hit and miss. Guaranteed to let you down, should you rely on them.
I work indirectly for Pon here in the Netherlands. It's hard to keep up with all the companies and subsidiaries. Derby, Union, Raleigh, Focus, Santa Cruz and many more non MTB cycle brands. I'll check out the ones you mentioned ??
