There's a video showing how to use the same tool to put a new bushing in, but you won't need it if you buy those tftuned kits.

Hi Guys, I have a list of parts and frame spares for the Revolt for sale after crash replacing mine to an Undead after chewing out the bottom bracket on a rock! Many are brand new - there are a few photos on my profile. I am currently in Whistler but the parts are with a friend in the UK (I did have a buyer so I sent parts home to make postage cheaper) so postage will cost from Europe.

The list:
- 2x Flip Chip set - £50 / 60 Euro
- Shoulder Bolt set - £50 / 60 Euro
- Bushing Set - £50/ 60 Euro (fits Revolt and Undead)
- Delta System link and through axle (The big triangular part of the linkage) - bit worn but good for spares - £20 / 24 Euro
- Rear wheel thru axle - good condition - £20 / 24 Euro
- Replacement caps for pivot bearings - Perfect condition - Free with another purchase
- 3x Spare shock mount axle - £20 / 24 Euro (used to be £60 a pair on CRC)
- Main Pivot Enduro Bearings (pair) - good quality bearings - £20 / 24 Euro

There will be a non negotiable paypal fee and a shipping fee included in the bill. Send a message to my profile if you want anything or have any questions! Thanks

The revolt discontinued as it had big issues with alignment, most frames were out of line which caused major issues. Kevin tried his best to keep things going and released the undead and now the uprising but as far as I know spares for the revolt are now quite scarce. If you are on about buying it then remove the bolts from both sides of the link and make sure it lines up well or you could be in for a wealth of pain!! Apparently the later ones were better if that helps

2011 mate I think we're the last ones manufactured , some also had fitted an aftermarket linkage kit which helped. For the price I would stay clear tbh

Hi Celio, congrats on your new Revolt, I hope it serves you well. Crackin bike.


Anyone looking at buying one, I would seriosuly think about what you are doing unless you really know what your looking at.


Its really not worth the risk, you can buy a dudd frame very easily, most of them are. Even with a dudd frame or not, parts are so difficult to get, certain ones impossible... why is it worth the RISK of something going wrong?

Just play safe, I know its attractive.. but.

Spares for the Revolt are running pretty thin on the ground right now. However if its just bushings that you're after they use the same ones in the Undead so you can just buy a bushing kit for that

Nothing else to pull off apart from the rear triangle dude. Lift it upwards while pulling the open end apart so as not to scratch the frame. When your rear triangle is off you push the bearings out away from the bike
