[Closed] Offset bushes on a Heckler with 150's?

Sorry I'm not going to be much use as I haven't used them - but I would also be interested to know - I was considering changing to 160mm, but would happily go for the 150's depending on the feedback here?

I'm running 160mm (36's) on my Heckler, and I've given offset bushes a try on it (the ali ones from that Irish lad - sorry forgotten the name). Did make a difference, albeit a subtle one.

I have found that it eats up the lower bush (swingarm end) extremely quickly (I do live in Snowdonia though, which isn't exactly, erm, dry), so I'm now running just the top bush (front triangle end) offset now and got a normal stainless one on the lower end.

Summary - it will make a small, but noticable difference, but be aware of the lower bush wearing out quickly.

I'd never go less than 160mm forks on the front of my Heckler though..... even with the offset bush.

I'll be even less use as I've no used them nor have a heckler

From what I read between the lines on here, it depends what bolt size you have running through your shockas to how much offset you can achieve and it depends how much slacker you are hoping to achieve as to wether it will work for you, as it won't give you loads.
That said a 160mm fork won't give you all that much more over a 150mm fork (though noticable)
IIRC for eg:
Fox 36/RS Lyrik/Domain @ 160mm A-C = 545mm
Fox 32 QR15 @ 150mm A-C = 525mm
RS Revelation/Sector* @ 150mm A-C = 528mm
*(unless its 530mm for a sector like the recon was 2mm higher than revs)
Which will give you upto 20mm higher axle-crown height. Which most likly will be a bit less than 1degree slacker, but also raise your bottom bracket, reduce you front centre/effective top tube length, slackern your seat angle etc etc where the shock bushes should do the opposite
