Hi Fellow CUBEer's,
I've just ordered a 140 HPC TM2023 to replace my 4 year old Levo for trail use, and will be looking to upgrade a few things....
Forks, probably just a new damper cartridge (Grip 2?).
Shock, is there a list of what defiantly fits? Looking at Cane creek Kitsuma Air or Ohlins TTX1air but open to other options.
Is there any room to 'over shock' by 5mm? (205x65)
Wheels, I will just steal my DT Swiss from my other bike All my bikes are 29".
Brakes, will try the MT7's as they are, but got spare Shimano levers if needed....
Gears, I will swap over my GX AXS or 'downgrade' to a BOX 9/10 speed.
Colour - Vinyl wrapping will be needed to hide the pea green, yuck!
Mainly riding Surrey Hills, longish XC style on North/South downs & XC/Trail riding in Wales/up north.
Occasional BPW trips and also Alps this year (but Levo can take that abuse...lol)
Any other tweeks or mod's to consider or feedback on my choices welcomed.
