Hmm, after about 10 hours worth of riding trying to like my new Nukeproof Mega, including the DH tracks at Cwmcarn, Blaenau, XC and Forest of Dean antics, I came to the conclusion I didn’t much like it. It just felt meh and badly weighted, as in the CoG was too front biased.
Sooo rather than lose bucket loads of cash selling it I thought I’d make some modifications to answer the problems as I saw them, namely the H/A is too steep and the rear shock tune is shi’ite.
On Friday gone I fitted a set of off-set bushes from Burgtec. Spent Friday afternoon and Saturday morning sessioning at FoD and what a transformation. Much happier on it, which I admit may have something to do with more time spent on it.
However, and now I come to point of my dull ramble (sorry, anything not to work!), I took the shock off this morning to send to Loco and saw that the rear bush has rotated 45deg anti-clockwise.
having done a little research into offset bushes I was lead to believe that they will not rotate.
Anyone else had this?
Still recommend them for this bike, felt loads better but, rather surprisingly, I still prefer the ride of a 2009 Remedy 8! Hopefully Loco can sort the shock and I’ll be happy.
