Mine was cheaper- I love you heihei man
Mine handles terribly with 160mm 36s. Much better on 130mm.
Hmmm - so maybe Pikes or Rev's are the way to go. Choices choices....
SL's first. Then drop the air or wind down
I couldn't help myself, its like someone else had control of my credit card!!! Great deal on 2010 Pike 454's obtained, adjustable coil sprung loveliness on its way....
I know a shop in Ireland that has a large frame in trans red. I could pass on the contact details if you wish.
I leave my AM SLs in 160mm mode all the time on my 4X. Handles brilliantly.
Hijacking I know but if anyone wants similar handling/geo to the 4x and is short on cash heres an option. I did it and it rocks...
Take one cheap old 2005-6 Santa Cruz Heckler and put a shorter 190 x 50mm shock on it rather than the standard 200 x 57mm.
You end up with 5" of travel. BB at 12.8 and a head angle of 66-67 with 140mm RS Revs.
Hora - Congratulations! What a great price... you b@stard 😉 Glad you managed to get back in the club without you having to steal mine.
I've started a new thread- it came in this afternoon from Spitalfields. On the psi- I'm reckon 160 for a 95kg rider with 25% sag?

See here: http://www.santacruzbikes.co.uk/bicycles/blur4x.html under shock set-up guide. Assuming it's got a Fox shock on it 160psi would suit a 72kg rider. I'm ~95kg with a big breakfast in me, more with clothes & Camelbak the SC recommendation for me is ~210psi. I run mine at ~200psi and it's good. Much lower than that and it's too wallowy.
Ah! I was working towards 25& sag- I forget its a different linkage/frame 😳 thank you
Just checked. Mine was £1,152 (hearing-aid-beige paint + RP23
Never heard that comparison before! eh....pardon. 😕
Still like the sand-beige one of yours. Looks mint.
I'll be feverishly rebuilding mine this weekend. [b][i]Another[/i][/b] new set of bearings.
The Mighty Higs quit moaning, great sex with a woman isnt free either 😆
Great sex with a woman also doesn't:
take all afternoon
require a special tool
cost £30 a time

True, otherwise it would be 5mins and a few barcadi breezers. Sorted.
