Ive had mine for a couple months but not had the chance to do many rides with it. So far I really like it. Its very light, compared to a steel P7 that I was riding before :D. Ive not quite got the shock setup quite right yet though.
I was wondering what other owners think and how they are getting on with it?
I'm still enjoying mine and gradually pushing things a bit more. Or rather I would be if I hadn't ****ted my shoulder into a tree last week.
Am loving mine been getting used lots. Fitted a K-Edge MTB chain catcher after the first ride to stop the chain getting caught between the inner ring & frame after the first off, but othewise no problems. I think the shock or bushings took a little while to break in, as the suspension now seems super plush on fast descents while at first it was a little slow to react. Reckon its one of the best looking new carbon frames out there. 😀
Mines been good even if it did break my ankle.
I am running 1*10 speed slx and a pike air.
biggest single improvement i mad to it was to add a dropper post as before it felt like it wanted to kick me off.
i have slight concerns about the cable routing in the swing link
larry - I've stood my cables off from the swing link using cable ties - on each side I put one round an arm of the link then one not-quite-snug around the cable. Stops the cable from sitting next to the link itself.
How are people getting on with the head angle as I'd heard it was a bit on the steep side?
pics?
Hello guys
A friend has just bought a Titus FTM frame and I have the job of building it up for him.
The problem I have ran into is getting a headset and crown race that'll fit and allow us to run a standard 1 1/8 steerer.
Any help/links would be gratefully received.
Cheers
I think on-one were stocking appropriate headsets?
@Mbnut - I got one form Germany - [b]Its going spare[/b] as it was for a bike build but I now have a tapered forks - its a cane creek lower race - 1.5 to 1 1/8? Same as the bike I am building.
1 x Cane Creek - 40-Series headset, integrated IS52 1.5 to 1 1/8
Cost me about 30 euros with postage.
You just need to get a standard integrated 1 1/8 top bearing from cane creek 🙂
I just bought a Reverb seatpost so think it will imporve things a lot.
Ill put some pictures up when I fix my camera but has anyone got any of theirs?
@Mbnut
Evans Cycles stock the correct headset but I imported mine from Cane Creek USA and forgot about the import tax. It ended up about the same as if Id bought it full price from the UK anyway.
Can creek website tells you which one you need:
