Re: xt stuff Hi got some xt brakes m739. If interested

Re: Fire me some pics and I will let you know.

Straight steerer?

Just after forks mate. Pm me a price.

Currently have 9mm QR, rim brake. So that would be best match. Steerer length I will need to measure, but it is not super long.

Looking to finish upgrading a project. After a nice and light, good condition air shock fork, 100mm to 120mm travel. v-brake mounts would help but can go to disks if absolutely essential. Not looking to break the bank either!!! What have you got?

got a standard (black hubbed) whyte front wheel off of my T129. Great condition with WTB i-19 rim. Any use to you?

Cheers all sorted now, got to have been the hardest shock to remove ever. A lot of cajoling, using clamps, washers, hammers and drifts, but it is all apart now. Just needing to order a new bushing/spacer kit and it will be back on the road & 300g lighter :0

Re: All sorted now thanks a lot of toing and froing and a bit of patience and the shock is off, now to order replacement bushings and spacers and the bike will be close to 300 grams lighter.

Hi, I have a couple of the FRS versions of Marin's 97 full suspension bikes. Whilst all still functional I want to upgrade one to a newer air shock. Problem I have is I cannot get the old shock off. I can remove the bolts on the upper mount and the nuts from the bottom mount. But I cannot seem...

Removed all bolts,(upper link) and nuts (bottom link) on the shock. But still not shifting, even after a firm tap with a hammer and drift and the sockets and clamp method. By chamfered washers do you mean the one pressed into the frame at the top? Not the housings for the hex bolts? if it is...

Sorry for necroing this thread, but struggling to get the original shock off. All bolts come out just can't get the bushes out of the frame, just got a nice new air shock for my quake 9. Any help appreciated.
