• Shakedown ride on this this afternoon. Quick capsule review: fuck yes.

  • A couple of items of note about the Flaremax, or possibly unwanted advice -
    It mullets just fine, and that's how I run mine.
    The rear if it's 120mm when you have the shock serviced they can take it to 132mm (can't say that I've noticed the extra 12mm of travel mind).
    Every other time you wash it spray the bearings with GT85 Or something similar otherwise I'll become a creak machine.
    Thread lock that chain guide on, they're annoying to replace, and the chain will come off without it.

  • Went for the Jeht in the end, so I’ve got 140 at the back already, but all those other bits of advice are far from unwelcome. Locktite and gt85 it is, cheers!

  • Which generation have you got? My G3 is 125mm and I'm wondering if shock mount positions got moved at some point between generations. I'd love to add 7mm of travel for nothing, if it was possible.
