I've seen this design for a 27.5 from a chinese company a few years back but never seen it built anywhere. Looks like a VPP/DW-LINK/Maestro copy. 150mm of rear travel is also interesting.

The headset should be a drop in type so you can wait until you're about to put the fork in before installing it. You can already press the bearing cup on the fork. Use grease to fit the cup and for all the bearings contact points (frame/cup).

Going with novatech hubs instead of DT 350 would bring the price down closer to your budget. Check with Peter what he can do.

You can also check there. I built a wheelset with their 36mm rims.

29er / M06 vs 036
« on: April 19, 2017, 12:01:17 PM »
Hi! I've been lurking for around 2 years now but posting for the first time. I have a few question about the differences between the new M06 and the good old 036 that I'm currently riding.

I know it is 12x142, but is it the same 12x142 rear axle as the 036?
Do they fit the same tire size?
Can you run cables internaly for both the shock and a dropper post on the M06?
Any comment about the lateral flex of the M06? Specifically on the rear triangle. The 036 could be a bit more stiff.
Is the rear suspension rate more progressive on the M06 compared to the 036?

Thank you!
