Hi all, after winter and covid stop I've finally been able to test my Riot !
Only 2 rides at the moment, did some suspension tuning and ride really well.
I have Schwalbe Maguic Mary+Hans Dampf on it and it pedal fast...can't imagine hoiw it could be with something aroung 750/800 grams tyre.
Need to take her on some alpine trail as soon as possible

this set, from Lexon store on Aliexpress; real weight 1730 grams with HG freehub, haven't rode yet but seem to be a nice set.

Cheers.

To the people who've build one, is shock mount hardware included? (two bolts for trunnion side, and the shaft mount bolt)?

Is the 41.4mm wide bushing the one I need to mount the shaft side?

Thanks.

rear end of the shock need a 40 x 8 mounting hardware; I went with a Racing Bros set.

well, I'm still happy with my Riot purchase, but seem to be a bit unlucky by now...suspensions arrived on wednesday, put the RS Deluxe Ultimate onto the frame and found that Lexon Official Store sent me a wrong couple trunnion bolts!
M8 instead of M10, so now I have a spare for rocker arm linkage bolts
They promptly shipped, meanwhile I've ordered a Vitus frame spare
Other than that I found my bottom bracket a bit out of tolerance; was really hard to screw-on BB cups, so I stopped and take it to a friend's shop to file it. Never happened such a thing in 20 years

By the way, I was able to "assemble" the bike and get an idea of what it will turn.

another nice feature, usually found on high-end frames, is guided cables in the swingarm.
As usual, I insert a piece of pipe insulator to avoid any noise or cable rattling inside downtube

Maybe I'm unlucky with mine
I usually " play" with frames before assembling and for sure I've learned to double check for thread retainer after I had lost one bolt of my Rocky Mountain Altitude (spare was a 150€ kit  )
No-brand frames sometimes come with rubbish bearings, so I think a check is a good starting point; Lexon ones seem nice in quality, no axial play and smooth, but you can damage an SKF too if bad pressed-in.
By the way, next week fork, shock and derailleur will arrive, so sunday could be maiden day!

Let us see the final assembly please! 

For sure, but this is my winter project, so it will take some week to be ready for trails!

Caseven, is a bearing press necessary for the headset on the Lexon Riot?  I'm getting my components ready for the Riot build (once it arrives) and the one tool I don't have is a bearing press.  Thanks.

Bearings just "drop in" into frame, no press required
