Got the shimano thru axel and boy what a difference. Does not come loose and fits in the mount better. The Chinese one I got was a POS. I highly recommend buying a different thru axel

Do you know what dt Swiss thru axel they are buying

Has anyone bought a thru axel that has worked well with the Cs 057. If so what kind?

My thru axel is coming loose while riding, anyone have this problem? It seems the nut used with the end of the thru axel is the wrong size

How does it ride?

I have a IP057 coming in and am trying to figure out what fork to put on it. I want the fork to be 120mm but I'm not sure what offset to get. Does anyone have any suggestions with this frame. I have a brand new fox 32 with 44mm offset. Do you think this would be fine for the bike? Or would the 51 be better?

I am pretty new to this site but had a few questions about the CS-057 frame. First I was wondering if anyone could tell me if this is the same frame as the IP-057? I know Peter spun off into a new company and I think it might be the exact same frame. I would also like to know if anyone has put a 120mm fork on the CS or IP? I'm thinking about putting a fox float 32 120mm with a 51 mm offset. Could you tell me about ride characteristics. Not looking for an xc racer but something fun to ride on light all mountain stuff. Is the geometry the same on the IP and the Cs 057? I got a quick response from Peter and hope to do business with him.
