Does anyone know the chainring offset to get for a sram x01 dh/ truvativ crankset on the 900 gambler?

Getting confused with all the offset options (0, 3, or 6mm)

I have a 2022 Gambler and the chainring that came with it is marked as 3mm offset.

Has anyone tried to install OChain on a 720 ?

Was it a simple install for this frame ?

Just buy a cheaper hub with less engagement

Hi all! Been building this one for a while. Just got the first ride in today and the singlespeed conversion worked flawlessly!

Wondering what people’s DHX2 settings are? I’m about 180# and the 350# spring seems a little stiff. Also curious on what people’s clicker settings are?

That looks sick! Do you have any photos, drawings or measurements for your idler and mount? Been playing with the thought of putting an idler on my gambler for a while, and this was inspiring

Hey guys

I have a Gambler 910, 2022 model, with singlespeed, SB one Boner tensioner and there is still big chain slap. It's driving me crazy.. do you have any tips how to get rid of it?
I have tried to shorten the chain, it works for a while, then because tension is too much, it will move the whole tensioner, loose the tension and pulley collide with the chainring (basically no B-point happen). I put extra rubber for a chainstay and so on.. I really don't like that Scott did not use ISCG 05 so I am not able to use E13 LG1 with the bottom tensioner. I had it on my previous Commencal and it was great...

Thanks

Thats a proprietary setup right? Pretty sure it kept me away from a frameset (and unsure but it looks integrated or pressfit?)


Try a 3d printing forum or similar to design a file from a few old mounts... lots of old e13 parts and custom already floating the stl sites. Some places have a 3d scanner if a designer asks for the specs of your mounts, but material is cheap and after printing prototypes you could send the file to metal 3d printing service if desired.

Had a printed upper slider for a weekend on the lifts, other than climbing I didn't notice a difference.

I'm the same height as you and would say a medium is too small. I ride a large and it's a great fit. Wouldn't want it any smaller.

Hello there

Can't seem to find the values anywhere, does anyone know the torque values for all the T30 bolts on a carbone Gambler ? (2021 and up, if they are the same?)

It's written on the trunnion bolts, but all the other T30 are a mystery ..

Thanks!

I don't know how to do this on my phone through DM here, but if you give me your mail or something, I can send you pdf file of how to assemble whole Gambler 2020+ frame (bearings, cables etc..) and you should find your answer there

If it's this one, they only mention 2 torque values, for the hanger bolt (1.5Nm) and lower shock bolt (10Nm):

If you have another one though, I'm interested! pming you an email
