Another reader here needing this measurement. Looks like it might be 22.2 based on a M06 build thread earlier on the forum, but would like to know before ordering.

Thanks!

This message from this morning is from the ebay seller  'carbon-goods'


Hi,


sorry to keep you waiting a long time
actually your package was return back to us ,it was saying that "incomplete address"
so we have to ship it again with another shipping company which can send it to you.
track# EA176771259CN
I think you'll receive it next week
sorry for any inconvenience
thanks for your patience

So annoying. First off, they never sent a tracking number, then they never sent a message saying that it was returned too them. I had to contact them to find what the deal was... Of course that tracking number is bogus bc it hasn't been shipped yet again.
Mental note, dont use these guys again

The bushing kits I used on the M06 I just built for my wife were these:

Fox 5-Piece Aluminum Mounting Hardware Kit for IGUS Bushing Shocks 8mm x 0.874" / 22.1mm (803-03-166)

I used a slightly larger one for the rear mount, but had to cut it down; two of the 8mm x 0.874/22.1mm would have worked.

Bike looks great, wife will go for first ride in the next day or so.
