Bigman Posted April 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2008 Glad you guys like it Just been out for a ride and the new forks feel awsome, realy suit the bike, with the control forks i was running the wheelbase was around 1115mm and it was just too long, the koxx forks have brought it back down to about 1098 ish (as koxx quote) and it realy feels better, also the 35mm rake makes the head angle feel steeper making moves to front alot nicer A vid should be along in not to long....Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigman Posted April 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2008 How do the snail cams work with the funbolts?The snail cams have been recessed so that they sit over the ends of the CK axle and drilled to 12mm to allow the fun bolt to fit, meaning that when put into the frame (135mm spacing) it does not splay it out to much Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
