Ticket S, the three bolts are for external dropper post routing.

Ah, that makes sense. Thanks.

Alright, guys, I've got a SS tensioner question. When I built up my ticket S I did the whole gear thing, but this last weekend at the bike park I still only used one gear, and it would have been the same gear I used for riding trails and street. Perhaps I've just been engrained with the feel of that gear, but it got me thinking that I could simplify the thing a lot with just one gear and a tensioner (dump the shifter, der, and gears). I've been looking at the following and would appreciate your thoughts if you have any history with any of them (if you have other ideas I'm all ears):

Just finished mine up the other day, using a YESS tensioner. Haven't had it out on any real rides yet, just messing around on the street. But it doesn't look too bad, its light, and so far seems very very solid and reliable.

What gearing did you go with on yours (I see you have a 28t up front)? I have a 32 up front and I think my go to is either the 14 or 15t ...

On this, I am running a 28:13.

My other bikes are, 25:12; 33:15; 32:14

I have run the Yess SS and it is a great product. That and also the guys that run the company are some really great guys.

ZenkiS14, thanks man. I've got 27-12 on my Deity and will probably do 32-14 on this.
Wannab, thanks for the input!

Looks good man! Just a comment, I flipped my chip so that the bb was higher/backend shorter, and the ride quality is a lot better. Not sure if you have played with that, but if you like to jump, manual, or hop it makes life a lot easier, IMO

I might play with that a bit, however, I usually prefer a slacker head tube angle like the way its set up now! I mostly ride just dirt and slope stuff.

I see you went with the Yess. How is it? As good as I said, even with full sus?

You know, I haven't really gotten a solid ride on it yet, but it expect to be 100% reliable. So far, just playing around with it, its perfect!
