Trekster
Andrew and I were meant to be doing it as a pair but i came a cropper at Kirry last week and managed to break my heel bone !! So no biking for a few months full stop.
Have fun
Ran mine (its got the DT shock) with the recommended sag and its ok but wasnt getting all the travel. I let a wee bit of air out and the brace across the seatstays clobbered the seat tube. Put another few psi back in and all was well-getting all travel etc.
I spoke to PACE about it and they obviously said it shouldnt if you run it right. They could fit a stopper in the shock if i liked to run it a bit softer than most.
Incidentlly the frame cracked at the welds (very fine hair line but there) on the shock brace after 9 months and the replaced the front end no problem.
Its got 6 months left on the 2 yr warranty so i am keeping an eye out for anymore and will be getting it replaced before the warranty runs out i fthey come back.
really like the bike as it lets me do everything on it (spain trips, xc races, Ae enduro, 24 hr etc)
not bust the drop out yet but had the front triangle replaced under warranty when cracks appeared on the shock brace welds – Pace sorted all no problem.
Had to face the rear disc mounts quite a bit too so it didnt rub
Heading there for a long weekend at the end of May with a group of mates so these comments are very worrying – might enjoy myself too much – bring it on 🙂
just put a 2.2 TR4 Team Issue TLR on my bike and its very big. Seems to roll and grip good as well – hard to tell on the snow though need some mud again
hungry monkey – that was us just in front. We didnt realise until the last man went out how close it was. Our last man came back white as a sheet with your guy right behind him.
