Happy Holidays!
I was planning to order it since Octorber and now finally did it. Expect photos/weight in about month, build list can be found here.
So, looking at this frame more closely it seems it's based off the new Yeti ASRc. Understanding it is a single pivot design i'm wondering if that's a step backwards as most "modern" designs are of the floating type suspensions. The redesigned Yeti has received good reviews and looking the frame up on Linkage Design, it has good antisquat numbers as well as pedal kickback and braking squat. I wonder how similar this frame would feel Anyone..........anyone..........hello, Mcfly???
No i did not. I haven't had time yet as this is the busy season for work. I went off geometry specs but i do believe the pivot point compared to the Yeti is a little lower so i'm sure the anti-squat numbers aren't as good.
How much torque did you guys use for shock binding posts? My M06 does not have any required values printed anywhere.
Not sure what a shock binding post is, but if it is the rear shock sex bolts, I had to grind them because they were a tad too long. I just tightened them as much as I could without stripping them.
Yep, you're right. Rainy day, so I drew it on Linkage and the anti-squat was not that great, neither the progression. I added it to Linkage library if you're curious to check.
When i drew it on my program i used mono pivot and my numbers came up much better than what is in the library. That was a concern as to how low the anti-squat values were but after i drew it a few times just to be sure i was more confident the frame would work well.
