So what does that mean then for a fox float X?
I think the Float X should fit. My MegNeg is as thick as a coil unfortunately.A megneg/float x should fit.
The issue is with a coil, i can confirm in some weeks as soon as it arrives, will take the coil out of my jeffsy and try it
I'd ask Linda to have a better video demonstrating the coil shock in full compression. I'd switch to a Float X which should work, but cash...I'm out of it! I don't want to sell off the MegNeg and buy another $500+ shock.It looks like it should fit to me.
There 155ers. Should fit...standard Q-factor. Just email me since you've got the address.If those cranks will fit the cef50, I can take
Look at this pic. Notice the eye hole on the lower mount isn't flush either...so it would even be MORE tight if centered on the bolt hole correctly.All they need to do is concave the seat tube area where it is hitting. Surly they could modify there mould to make it work.
I also think your megneg might work. As the shock will move forward ever so slightly. So it could work.
Any shock similar would be fine if this was the case.
After seeing at orbea X2 might also work upside down also.
Such a shame. This frame looked like the ultimate DIY e bike.
They have to fix this.
Would be crazy of them if they didn't.
not too fast making this decision man? why just not sell your megneg shock and change to Float X2 maybe?Alright, thanks for sending me the full video. I'll confirm vid with Linda. But your pic is clear enough...too tight for coil tolerance!🫣
But it looks a coil is not going work on CEF50. Neither is my fat air can.
Well, the next best option for a M820 frame with a coil is the LCE930 still in development.
LC Jim does a good job, so might be worth the wait. I can't however.
I think I'm out. I needed the coil/big air can option and the big 720 Wh battery being a heavier dude.
I'm going back to full-powered while I still have a chance to purchase the frame.
Good luck peeps! The CEF50 looks pretty sweet and I look forward to seeing some mean looking steeds out there! Also, some good reviews on the exciting M820-75 big, light-weight, mid-powered motor.
Nah, MegNeg is too specialized. I'd likely spend months waiting to sell it or re-covert it back then sell as Select +. Lose too much $$$.not too fast making this decision man? why just not sell your megneg shock and change to Float X2 maybe?
Same. Unfortunately. Can't wait and risk. Too many working parts to adjust to it. Going back to full-powered frame.What's the diameter of the meg neg.
Coil is about 54mm
I tend to agree. When the fat part of the shock gets pushed down it will also get pushed out away from the frame. The coil is a problem because they are fat all the way down.The pictures show clearance issues near the ends, but the megneg can is thick in the center. I still think it will work.
Too risky. Linda said she'll do a compression check on a standard shock Monday..This tells me Linda knows the coil won't work.The pictures show clearance issues near the ends, but the megneg can is thick in the center. I still think it will work.
Too risky. Plus no way to test for sure except with me testing in the bike stand.That pic has the bike upside down. If you run

Well the Kitsuma is even bulkier. I guess I'll find out eventually. I got it at a good used price, but that probably mostly because rear shocks are hard to sell.Too risky. Plus no way to test for sure except with me testing in the bike stand.
But no trust now.This sucks for anyone who's frame is on the way.
But I believe the dpx2 should work fine on this frame.
Also the new 2023 rockshox super deluxe air should also be fine.
So you can run a really good rear shock still.
So don't think you have wasted you cash. It's still a great looking frame. But won't be for everyone.
I think it's a great frame."first we try, then we trust"
So you ask refund for your deposit to Linda?I think it's a great frame.
Just not fitting my personal needs and now budget. I could have made adjustments to the Float X 2023 a month ago and had a rare 20% discount from JensonUSA that's now expired. That would have been doable for me.
Just happy to cut my losses due to this forum thread. So group hug and appreciate the good input!
Anyway, it is what it is!
Peace out.
