Evening,
Was kindly gifted a Saracen Ariel 140 frame and after a makeover I’m putting it together. However, it’s confusing me around the linkage arms. Does anyone have a decent photo or guide to put it back together?
Cheers
Chris
Do the photos here help?

I have an Ariel 14X, but not near me just now. Be careful with the alloy torx bolts. I think some are reverse threaded, though I might be making that up. It might be that you screw them out from the back of the bolt?
Thanks @TroutWrestler I’d found that link but think mine might be the previous version as linkage looked slightly different. Haha, yes I’ve already discovered the reverse torx…made of cheese!
Cheers
It is t27 too, not t25.
I think that is the 1st Gen Ariel frame.
