    Just to set the record straight on this matter, I did email Renton .. when I finished work for the day & could access a computer … and received this reply ….

    ” Paul.

    Please accept my deepest apologies for all of this!!

    I know you don’t need to know all about my issues and I know it’s no excuse but I’m having a bit of a hard time at work and I’m totally stressed out!!

    I’ve acted like a bit of a **** to be honest and it was out of order.

    I will let you know when the light turns up.

    Regards

    Steve “

    …….. Apologies were accepted & he will receive his light before the weekend :-)

    You can convert a 2012 spicy to 140mm travel by using the longer shock ‘extension’ from a 2012 Zesty & a 200 x 56 shock .. the linkage is the same.

    £30 and the place is excellent. Most powdercoaters carry regular stock of black, slate, grey etc with the odd primary and you have to order in if you want a different colour. This place (Stockport) has ALOT.

    I’m looking to have a frame powder coated & am local to Stockport, would you mind emailing (in profile)the details of the company in Stockport please

    Thanks for the link coma2s, fully aware of the geometry chart but unfortunately it doesn’t give the information I’m after, namely the wheelbase … Anyone in a position to measure a bike please

    It rides really good, the size of the tyres coupled with low pressure gives amazing grip in sloppy mud & drives over the top of snow where a normal tyre just sinks in, plus they really smooth out rocky downhills.

    On the downside they weigh a ton & are very draggy on tarmac.

    Definitely give the bike more ‘fun factor’ when conditions demand them, well worth having a set in the garage without the major expense of building a proper fatbike

    Just got a pair of these in 10 1/2 but they’re to small, anybody want them before I take them back, or exchange for an 11?

    And your LH shifter goes ???????????????????
    Who needs a front mech? Single ring ftw!
    Plenty

    No, I think Fox will have that covered
    ……. mounting underbar & the size of those levers … I don’t believe they have it figured out actually & they look extremely vulnerable above the bars

    Cruzheckler, I stand corrected on that, thanks for pointing it out, I was under the impression that a 56/57mm stroke shock gave you 140. In that case you could get a Prophet up to 6″ travel providing there are no clearance issues.Maybe someone could check if its possible?

    If anyone’s in the market for a shock upgrade on their Prophet, I have a brand new Rock Shox Monarch for sale in the classifieds, it will give you 140mm travel on a Prophet.
