My mate gave me the job of replacing the bearings in his Mega 275, model year 2017.

I am now putting the frame back together after changing the bearings. I can’t work out where the 2 clevis spacers go and my my mate who took the frame to pieces can’t remember. I assume they both go inside the clevis on the outside of each of the bearings but it’s very tight and I want to get it right.

Anyone have experience of this?

2018 – 2020 frame is the same setup, just boost

May be easier to see in this diagram

Was looking at a 2016 diagram before, having looked again at that diagram I’m sure they both go inside the clevis. I wonder if the bearings are not seated correctly not leaving enough room for the spacers, hmmm.

There is a small washer that fits between the two small bearings on the chainstay, with a washer either side (so 3 washers in total per side).

I put that one back in.

Done it. The bearings were not quite in far enough.
