I'm 185 cm, debated L / XL and ended up with L and 50mm stem. Perfect size, glad I didn't go bigger.

Help needed!
Does anyone know the stock rockshox rear shock tune for the new spindrift?
My used jade is having issues and I need to get a replacement shock while I get that serviced, or sell it..

My mate is selling his spindrift 27.5 and I wanna buy it
My bike is currently set up as a mullet and I love the 29er front wheel
Is there a way I can put the 29er front wheel on the spindrift without it making it dangerous or slack as?

why don't you try to fit your front 29" wheel on his 27.5" bike and give it a try?

yeah I think I might ask him if I can, I’m just worried about making it too slack (snap)

There's about 20mm height difference between a 27.5 axle and a 29mm one, which if you take the BB to be about half way between the two axles results in about 10mm BB difference.

SRAM lists 10mm difference in axle to crown length between the 180 and the 190 (surprise surprise). With a 64 degree head angle this results in a height increase of about 9mm in the front of the bike. Again assuming that the BB is halfway between both axles, this 190mm Zeb should raise the BB by about 4.5mm.

So the BB with 190mm Zeb and 27.5 rear wheel is about 5.5mm lower than stock with 29 wheels and 180mm Zeb.

what would be the new bottom bracket height then? cant seem to find anything about the spindrifts bb height anywhere, the only thing listed anywhere is the bb drop

Can you run a M8x30 bearing end shock in the Spindrift AL frame?

The with measurement is the same, but rather than an eyelet end with bushings, it has a bearing end?
