So there's a decent snag list on the YT now after the dust off (in the dust) run on Saturday.
Fork seals need to be replaced as they sprung a leak fairly quickly once I got going, no big deal as they're second hand anyway, I was changing my arm to not service them beforehand...
Back brake needs to be bled after trimming the hose although it still feels great, just not as great as the uncut front...
Dropper lost all pressure after the seat unscrewed the lid of the chamber following some over zealous whip efforts over some gaps (disconcerting) I think it just needs to be tightened and repressurised but it seems to tighten fully past centre of the height markings on the post, seems a bit odd, will investigate.
Need a bigger chainring. Found myself only using the three smallest cogs so I reckon an extra tooth or two up front would balance a bit better, I'll want the spinny gears for #enduropacking but I'd also like a bit more go for any long flat/ slightly downhill fireroads...
Wheels need a tighten after first effort.
Frame needs to be invisiframed as I'm actually falling in love with the stupid paint. Might try the clear Gorilla tape, open to suggestions though if anyone has a recommendation?
Other than that the suspension is going to take a while to get right, oodles of adjustability so it's not really a quick setup.
