Does anyone know of any other derailleur hangers that work instead of the 10171? I have a 2017 Radon Slide with a bent to shit hanger and I have only found one place online that sells it, but shipping is 5 times the cost of the replacement part. I am in the US which is making it even harder.

Has anyone tried a RS Vivid coil on the Swoop Al 29? Thinking about coil converting, also wondering how much I can overstroke it? Seen someone has managed to get a 222x70 in there (comes standard with 216x63).

Hi everyone, I have 2014-15 swoop 190 I bought just frame from bike discount in 2018. First ride with 26" wheels but when my rim cracked I decided to fresh new 27.5" wheel set and 27.5 2.40 maxiss tyres fit very well to my frame, frame comes with 222x70 eye to eye shock size but I change with swoop 210's shock bottom clamps and now I can use with 241x76 shock if you want anything to ask me you can message from here or in instagram same nickname Smile

Hi Marcus, seeing this only now... but I have the info if that can still help :
Yep 222x70 fits fine on my Swoop AL 29" (2021?) size XL, flip chip Low position. Theoretical travel is now 186mm.

A few numbers : ride height of 216x63 at 30% sag is close to 222x70 at 35% sag.
You may want to put a light spring to get that bigger sag, or if you were previously in the flip chip Mid setting, then go to the Low setting, or put a 27,5" wheel in the rear etc.

I can't comment much on the effect of going coil or going 222x70, since I changed both variables at the same time (216x63 Vivid air to 222x70 Vivid coil), but it feels great for sure!
