Did you get your raceking race sports to go tubeless?

...I didn't try.
It must be very difficult to seal the Conti tires >:(
Maybe I switch to Michelin 26" latex tubes...

Do you HEvD the specs of the fork?
What BB are you riding? Is the 36t an easy fit?

sorry, I don't have any specs of the fork.
I only know:
Fork length 470mm
Postmount (at least 180mm rotors)
15mm axle
Sören, CEO of Vpace, sent me pictures of his own bike with this fork and I was in love immediately  ;D
I'm sure, he will update the website with all specs soon...

the 36T was an easy fit. the frame has a 92mm pressfit bottom bracket and I have mounted the sram/truvativ GXP bottom bracket without any spacers.

I will take some pictures (fork and BB) and post them on monday...

You see that bike next to you on a race start(seat height, 36T, rigid fork... ), and you know this one won't be easy :)

...then you take a look at the rider and you see that he is almost 50years old - so it will be easy... ::)

I really like that riding position.
In the early 90s, I had more saddle to bar drop:
only 9-10cm head tube, short fork length (and a veeeery long 140mm Syncros Stem... ;D)

Cheers
Sascha

For me what I would like is 38T though (I did this research because of it), so I need the Boost 148 compatible frame with 52mm distance between chainring and centerline.. :(

take a look at my picture, it's a 36T and I would say, there is another 4mm space for the 38T...
It's a standard IP256SL frame with PF92 bottom bracket option.

Hi guys, I'm Sascha from germany (south west near france) and I'm riding a 256SL.
It's a rigid setup with 7910gr. at the moment  8)

I would like to mount a 36t chainring, but it doesn't fit the frame.

Are you sure ? I've got the same frame with a X01 Crankset and a 36T Chainring. Q-Factor is 168
Perhaps you have the XX1 crankset with Q-Factor 156? Switch to 168 and it works...
