29er / Re: Time to Build Another One - IP-036 (completed on page 2)
« on: February 12, 2015, 07:03:18 PM »
I have a question that I am trying to figure out between the two builds I have done. The ip057 I believe had eyelets that kept the brake lines and derailleur lines in place as they fed through the holes of the frame.  This made put them permanently in place.  The Ip036 didn't have eyelets to hold the cables in place so they are just floating in the frame holes.  What am I missing? I don't remember this on the Ip057.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/100pcs-Bicycle-Bike-Plastic-Brake-Cable-Housing-Ferrule-End-Caps-/151368179508 .. I think they are just these type of plastic pieces.  I can't remember if the bare cables were ran in the frame or with the plastic sleeve inserts.

Need to hit that down with some PVC pipe to get it straight.

Completed Pics.  I need to shorten the cables. Full Xloc Sprint was a bit tricky as I got some wrong parts.  The rear brake I ran on the bottom of the frame but I noticed others ran theirs through the frame which I think is the front derailleur hole.

yes mine were 8mm. Those dtswiss bearings are a bit different than the RWC so I am not sure. Right 2x22.2 and one shim possibly.

Yes 165x38 or 6.5x1.5.   I measured my 036 at 22.2 and 22.7mm so i purchased two RWC http://www.enduroforkseals.com/id275.html one shim.  I used a digital caliper to measure the gaps but others have reported 22.2 on both sides.

I own a 15.5 IP057 and IP036 17.5 but the perfect bike for me would be a 16.5.

Used a digital caliper to figure out what RWC Shock eye Needle bearing kit I needed.  I measured one side (closest to the seat post) at~22.7mm and the other side at ~22.2mm.  So I am going to order 2 NBKRWC2220 and not sure what shim kit yet.  The 6mm or 8mm? I need to measure a bolt to figure that out.  edit: its 8mm

Pics from another thread on mtbr showing an example of the (closest to the seat post) side.  Measured at 22.7mm

That would make sense.. I need to get a flashlight and look at them closer.  EDIT: looked at them closer, they are on the top back bars and on the side not bottom.  They aren't through the carbon all the way and aren't perfectly circle.  Its just strange they are exactly same spot on both sides.

Nope, not on mine.

Here is the other side.  I asked Peter what he thinks, I am not too concerned about it but would like to know if it is intentional or a defect in the mold.

I just got my Ip036 today and it looks good but I noticed something and I was wondering if everyon else had these two notches on both sides of the back (arms). Not sure what they are called.
