just bought a used frame so really after some of the frame specs, but any experiances and opinions gladly had. hardward and bearing replacement for eg. ride, shock tune etc
also seller recons it'll run 27.5? anyone?
ah,
just had a rapid repsonse from YT which wasn't expected. so just for reference:
rear axel 135x12
headset bottom ZS44/56
shock 216x63
tune M/M
Fyi I knew someone who ran 27.5 on a wicked
Yup...best bike ive ever had.
Running 26 on it though
thanks
looking forward to building it up
compared to what transporter?
i'm coming from a 2009 pitch
There is a 26" and a 650b Wicked. Different frames I'm pretty sure. Never heard about running 650b in the 26" frame
well aye, that's why i asked. seller said that - running 275 in 26
The shock yt told you doesn't match up to whats on my wicked 150 (26) thats sat in the garage. It says 200x57 in a LH tune on the standard monarch rt3 that came with it.
ah thanks jakebeach
i had a feeling it was that size, tho no idea why
so in LH which is compression and which is rebound? anyone know?
presumably comp 1st?
give this a little bump in case iffernet folk are about.
have remailed yt re shock size
BIL has one, in 26'' guise. He bought it as it had a good selection of components for the price. I was impressed by how light it is. It made my liteville look very overpriced
aye, when they were still quite young company, prices were astounding!
not astounding enough for a budget biker like me mind, but i wanted one nevertheless. anyway now i've got one, frame was a bargian i thought, probably partly due to original cheapness.
extra bits now ordered up; 40mm stem, hub converters etc...
in case anyone's researching this later, i got confirmation from YT that shock is as jakebeach says (not that i doubted it)
200x57 in an LH tune.
