My new carbon V10 appears to have some vertical play in the rear end. Side-to-side everything is fine, but when liftting the bike with the saddle, the rear end will move / extend for a few mm before the rear tire lifts from the floor. This movement is not the shock extending from sag position. I could also locate no play in the shock bushings and checked all the bolts - everything is tight
Actually the rear end does not feel loose, it is more like some sort of flex. When pulling at the saddle while holding the rear wheel, I can further extend the rear end, there is no hard stop when the shock is fully extended like I`m used from my other non-vpp bikes. When doing this, I see no movement in the shock or lower link, but the upper link is moving.
Any thoughts on this?
