    Just fitted one to my Enduro 29 (thanks Bob), it’s working great and I think I’m gonna keep it on long term.

    Can other users reassure me that they haven’t had wear to the sides of the shock (as the Enduro can cause with its standard fitting)?

    Interested to here about this also as I’m looking at fitting an ohlins coil on my E29

    I have got a Bike yoke I am going to be selling Beano, used with a Float X2 on my 2017 enduro no problems with clearance either ends, also ran an offset bushing on the yoke side plenty of clearance there.

    also ran an offset bushing on the yoke side

    I have one in the front end, can you get one in the rear too?

    I thought it looked a custom size with a chunkier bolt.

    PS. the 650b yoke fits on the large alu 29er giving big geometry improvement

    Got one is my strive to replace the shapeshifter. 18 months no problem with 4 weeks in the alps, plus plenty of crappy landings!

    chakaping offset bushings made it up for me just tell them what yoke and shock you have.

    good to hear thanks nick

    beano – adding to my earlier comment, you may be able to fit the 650b yoke (#4?) and slacken your bike out a bit more while lowering the BB nicely. It fits fine on my large.

    I dunno about you but I found the standard yoke way too high in the bb.

    Anyone had a mess with the 2018 Enduro flip chip link yet.

    Cheers, that makes sense. Did he say what kind of difference it would offer?

    @chakaping … I did hear about folk putting 650b yokes on their 29rs … heard good and bad things about rubbing etc, and invalidates frame warranty, mines carbon, I’ll ring up tftuned and get their advice plus they stock all sizes

    Good idea. I have a friend who used the Spesh 650b yoke on his medium carbon 29er with no problems.

    Bikeyoke are quite helpful also, I asked them on FB before I bought one.

    I have the 2018 link on my 2017. I’ve got it set in the low position and it’s fine. I have a ttx coil on it with coil lyrics. Am considering coil rxf ohlins forks though, as it’ll all match then……

    Excellent
