I'm not sure 10mm takes it from normal travel to long travel... it's marginal at best isn't it ?
It's a lovely thing though
I'm assuming it's 29er only though
The 150mm option is the same as the previous model, rather than being new for 2022.
No, the previous model did not have a 150mm rear option.
new model, its identical to the 20/21 model.
i've just checked the geometry numbers on s/m/l/xl on the blueprint 2020 pdf versus the numbers above (non LT version) the only difference i can spot is you can get a different stroke shock/ (or coil shock) to make it 10mm bigger at the back..
standover height is new into the numbers too.
In theory i could buy the replacement shock and make my 150/140 2020 model an LT.
ps. buy a spare Y0000128 Kit Axle pivot £11-12, as the fixing ring is very easy to break on the rear axle,
pps. i'm not sure an extra 10mm at the back is needed, since changing the shock token to the biggest one, its felt 10x as good, and it coped very well in the granada mountains last week
I did like the look of these, but what's with the massive jump from L to XL with the seat tube length!
It just seems long considering the bikes intent?
