Tried a HR2 2.3 and clearance is all good.

Anyway, back to the subject of colour, get a 29er, BLUE!!!!!!

If I’m reading this correctly you have a smuggler and the seat stay brace wouldn’t accept a 29*2.3 tyre? Thats a bit worrying, what width rim?

That’s exactly what i’m saying. Wheels are SRAM Rail 50, 23mm internal width. The picture was take at about 20psi, at about 40psi the wheel stops turning.

m_t_b – I hope it’s Blue! it looks so much better in daylight than the pictures.

I’ve almost got mine built up, just waiting for a different rear tyre, the original choice clashed with the seat stay brace! I was a 2.3 WTB vigilante so not the best choice anyway, going to try a HR2.

I’ll put some pics up when its together.

I had the same generic response a few weeks ago.

He seems to spend more time deleting the comments and questions on his Facebook page than getting products to customers. He also continues to take orders from his website yet he can’t give anyone an expected delivery date and probably has no grip of how big the back log is.

I don’t see you have anything to cry about, and you really should have factored this into it when you bought it. Either send it back to Germany for them to warranty, or pay for the repairs!

No crying here, just disappointed. Post was more of a warning to those thinking about buying one of the more problematic parts outside of the UK.

I have to agree that the LEV was great until then, was great in operation and very stiff. its also really easy to do a general strip/clean/regrease.

New bike has a reverb though…

Just be careful about buying a KS from abroad, it’ll have to go back to wherever it was bought for warranty work.

I bought my KS LEV from Germany, it developed the sagging issue that a lot of the earlier ones did and Jungle can’t help and KS won’t even respond to my requests to authorise Jungle to do the work.

It’ll now be heading back to Germany, probably to be never seen again. It has been a good post though.

Great choice of bike 😉 I’ve got a Medium Smuggler frame waiting to be built up.

I went for a 150 Reverb, I think you’ll have it quite a way out of the frame if you went for the 125.

I looked at the ones from Alltricks but couldn’t find any reference to that manufacturer part number anywhere else.

I’m really looking for solo air 120mm versions but haven’t seen them anywhere at a reasonable price, looks like a cheaper option to buy the 140mm versions and have them converted.

please post up if alltricks come back with a picture, need 51mm offset myself.

Cheers for the heads up on Evans, love my MT500 jacket and have now picked another one up for when it bites the dust!

I’ve been using A’ME Clamp-on, they’re 50% off at Alans at them moment, although only in pink or grey

Can only agree with the comments above. I was on one of his public singletrack sessions this week and it was brilliant, has given me loads more confidence.

I can’t wait for monday, I’m on one of his Jumps & drops sessions!

I’m having the same problems trying to find a pair of Maxxis High Roller 2 26×2.3 62A/60A Dual Compound.

Anyone know where I can find some?

Thanks
