Hey guys, just wondering. Has anybody noticed some play from the pivot that attaches the wishbone to the control piece? I tightened both bolts on the wishbone which caused some play before, but I just had the linkage rebuilt...

Also, @forest. I would recommend you send the frame to Devinci or bring it in to your local bike shop.

Is it the black bolt? Some blue loctite as well as so.e gorrilla tape next to the entrance area of the bolt to 'preload' it. This is what I did and it removed all play until I sold the bike. I posted pics a few pages back if you need a look

I had this when I rebuild mine. Remove the cranks and tighten the bb carrier a bit more. Not sure what the proper name for it is. Its the bits that screw into the from for your BB to go into.

Does anyone have play in the lower shock mounting bolt? Cranked down and still sloppy

Put gorrilla tape to act as spacer with a generous amount of loctite on the threads of the wishbone bolt. Hasn t budged in 4months with over 5 park days and many other dh shuttle runs. Pretty stoked this ghetto fix worked knock on wood.

Had this same problem. Ghetto, but never had a problem again.

Blue loctight and gorrilla tape along the outside of where the bolt enters to 'preload' the wishbone. never came loose again after double digits bike park days and 8 months dh riding.

So I tried everyone's tips on how to remove play from the wishbone area, which fixed that area's play. Now I have play coming from near the bottom bracket. Anybody else have this issue or has any tips on how to fix it?

Yeah, checked the iscg plate. I found out that it's the BB pivot that seems to be creating the play. Don't I need a special tool to sort that out?

No, slacken pinch bolts and gently tap it tighter with a hammer and screwdriver, you can get a tool utility I just done it that way.
