This is true, many have raced on the ripmo as well, which has 147mm, the canyon strive with 150mm as well, In addition the old trek slash was a 150mm enduro race rig

I have 203mm Hope rotor on my Dreadnought, which I think is the max size, the rear triangle can take.

So who out there has a push on their dreadnaught? How are you getting on with it and how do you find their ‘tune’??

Cheers

Hey I’m just curious if anyone else has any issues with rocks getting stuck, I have the winter fender on with the moto foam, but I am getting small rocks stuck In different spot. Kind of between the two triangles by the idler pulley. Small Rocks have been getting stuck and I have to flip my bike and compress my rear shock and try to pick them out

Yup. I take out the fender and moto foam each ride and clean out all the pebbles... Takes a bit of time to get the bike clean after a ride... Is what it is. Was similar with my Spec Enduro FWIW

Do you think it would be coming from the top or could it be from being kicked up from the bottom?

Hi everyone, if a dreadnought owner can help me please, mine is due for tomorrow, and I have a question.
I want to know the angle from horizontal of the chain between the upper pulley and the chain ring. In others words please someone open the measurement app on an iPhone, stick the iPhone to the almost vertical part of the chain between the pulley and the ring and tell me the number ^^

This is to clock my oval chain ring...

Merry Christmas by the way! Smile

Definitely from the top. The lower shock linkage area seems pretty decent at clearing mud

I wonder if with the Cascade link you could get the EXT Storia V3 to work with a reduced 62.5 mm stroke which would end up giving a 161mm travel instead of the full 168mm /65mm stroke Cascade set up? I was super disappointed that my Ohlin's TTX2 didn't fit anymore with the Cascade link installed at 65mm stroke....I guess I should get around to trying it at 62.5mm to see. The TTX2 had the the slightest of contact with the Cascade link at full extension/top out.
The Fox Float X2, DHX and DHX2 all fit with the Cascade link and 65mm stroke.

can anyone confirm a super deluxe ultimate fitting at 65mm stroke?

Any word on a Cascade link that’s Push 11.6 compatible? Other option is to have a custom machined spacer similar to the EXT adaptor made by Pinner Machine shop, but I’m hoping Cascade would have something more broadly compatible in the works.
