let you google that for me
Might as well get started - how much will you want for it?

Looks tasty.
No frame clearance issues though?
Your internet points are off the charts
looking forward to the ride report!Good pick up mate. It does have clearance issues with the Voima downtube but the Levo and Titan are all good. Fork shuffle happening tomorrow after work.

Ride report? Pffffft...this is rotorburn! There will be a lot of very sexy photos and not picking about the headset cups not lining up with an imaginary line of symmetry to the tyre valves.

Silly me of course. Do we spray mud on the bike to make it look ridden or pristine studio shots only?
Worked out perfectly tbh. The Voima is meant to have 190 front travel but the Intend with the Mezzer damper only allows 180. This will lift the front that amount and correct the geo.???

Burn me at the stake as a heretic but whats wrong with using one of these to cheat 10mm of clearance under the downtube????

External headset cup?

Probably nothing in reality. I dislike the idea of the loads from the crown race/bearing being at the point where most steerer tubes start to taper in, but what would actually be stronger out of a raised crown race as part of a spacer vs. a thin external bearing cup - NFI. I have already bought one of those WolfTooth EC56 cups for when the temptation strikes in future though.Burn me at the stake as a heretic but whats wrong with using one of these to cheat 10mm of clearance under the downtube?

carpet fiber stunt jumper integrated, no can do external cup
It's a public holiday weekend coming up for us, hopefully the family planets will align for some "me" time in the shed to get the lathe onto the stand where its supposed to be and try to play "fitter and turner". It's been a while so probably more like "fit her in the lathe and turn it into sh!t"Probably nothing in reality.

Ouch that looks expensive
That extender bottom cup and the fact that my brakes have actually left Frankfurt as of yesterday means the fork shuffle is no longer necessary. Thanks @beebMy reputation as an enabler grows!
