Hi!  I already ordered the frame in size L, waiting for it to arrive with great enthusiasm.  Could a colleague tell me the size of the rear brake hose for size L?  Thanks and best regards

Did you get the stickers on the fork separately ?

I asked Wing, what their recommended way of housing guidance around the shock looks like. She sent me the drawing

BTLOS Wheels are great (not a shill)! but please ignore the Road cleats ;) This was 10 mins before i snapped my 12s chain - so annoying.

Bit if interval training, I love how the rear end works on steep climbs, so much much traction!

Uploads to the site dont work anymore! :P

Can someone post a link or list of replacement bearing for the rear linkage?  I saw a needle bearing option for the upper shock mount but not specifics for the rest of the linkage.  After 1,000 miles of mostly dusty trails I'm having some squeaking in the linkage and planning to do a rebuild/regrease.

I took my newly arrived frame apart to check the grease level of the bearings
Looks like it's:
4x 6900VRS
2x 6901VRS

And 2x 6801 in trunnion mount

Tip for the 936 users :

Check the derailleur hanger bolt sometimes.

I solved noise issues by retightening the bolt, the noise appeared when pedaling probably because the hanger could slip a bit.

Does somebody know if a DVA Topaz would fit, with the double barrel ?
Wing says no, but he also says no for 42.5mm shock, non trunnion shock...

Would not fit. Reservoir will hit the frame.

Are you sure that the carbonda frame have less space than this one ?

Hi guys,

I found thist threat yeasterday and I I read the whole thing because I want to order this same frame, thanks for all that cool information :).
My only thought is ,wich frame size would fit me better.? Comparing the geometry with my actual Scalpel Si in L, the carbonda frame is pretty big so I'm considering downsizing to M. What you guys think?
I am 1,83m tall and I usually have my saddle height at 77,5 cm (BB to top of the Saddle).
Anyone riding a M with more or less the same saddle height?

Thanks again and keep posting those cool bike pics!
