But for your bearings it doens't matter... If it's the same size it's fine.

So the Vitus specs I recieved may not fit my Fm936?

I have the list of parts from Wing but the bearing spec's aren't on it - just dimensions of the bearings.

Also, should I buy the replacement clip? Or is this re-usable? Does the clip come out with a pair of tweezers?

Just want to minimize downtime during my bearing replacement so I have everything handy.

Hi,

Is the Vitus Rapide FS & FM936 exactly the same in terms of getting the same hardware and bearings?

I got 2 assembly drawings, 1 from vitus and 1 from carbonda.

I notice on the carbonda drawing, there is a 'clip' in one of the pivots as Part No. 10.
this doesn't exist in the vitus drawing.

Please let me know what you guys think

Hi

I am looking to replace the pivot bearings for this frame

Does anyone have the bearing specs handy - I only have 1 bearing spec from Wing's drawing he sent me. Do you guys buy from Wing or buy locally? Are there any additional parts other than the bearings that I may need to replace with the bearings? I know in one of the bearings there is a metal clip? Does this need to be replaced?

Additionally, does anyone know what size bearing puller/slide hammer I need to remove the bearings?

Thank you! Any information will be really helpful as I am scratching my head here. Love the bike!!

Beautiful Build! How did you source the remote lockout for the sidluxe?

I considered changing to a 42.5 - But my concern is that the increase in travel will lower the BB?

Its my do-it-all bike but also mostly to race XC on technical natural trails during the summer - so I like a machine that is lightweight. Contemplating returning it for the 42.5.

In the future I will be running a 110 (or 120) 35 sid ult.

Thanks!

Thank you Carbonazza! I ordered the 165x40 trunnion version as wing said the 42.5 wont fit . I will order this bushing kit now

Hi All

I just bought one of these, with additional hardware as per some of the issues expressed on this forum.

A few questions in preparation of my build - (the bike is gonna be set up as 100mm XC racer with 165 cranks).

What aftermarket hardware should I buy? (I ordered spare shock and pivot bolts)
What shock (Preferably RS) would suit the frame best?

Will This Fit? https://www.bike24.com/p2397287.html
I notice in the discription it says bushing kit not supplied - Do i need to buy anything to make this fit the frame?

Thank you!

Hey Guys!

New to this forum - I think i able gonna pull the plug and buy the 918 frame as it is cheaper shipping and frame then what Carbonda quoted me for a fm936.

My idea is to swap all my MTB parts from my hardtail to this frame, so the only new thing I would need is a shock.

What shock would you recommend for this frame? Would this work - https://www.chainreactioncycles.com/ie/en/fox-suspension-float-performance-elite-lv-rear-shock/rp-prod211485?gs=1&sku=sku867452&utm_source=google&utm_term=&utm_campaign=&utm_medium=base&gclid=CjwKCAjw0dKXBhBPEiwA2bmObXlCTm_lhCUo76wpNFtVMERv1eahwpNpOwsmRoT36z0DlQZK5XFpDxoCuboQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

Also is the BSA boost spacing?

If any of you have any advice - please let me know
