Dropped the Crowns down .5" to .75" on the Fox 40. Changed out spring and that is were the BB height was when I measured it. It also changed the HT angel to 65 degrees where I wanted it. Didn't do too much. I did drop the bar ride height down over 2". This made the bike feel way better than the stock ride height.What did you do to get the BB that low?
Please let me know because I would love to do the same.
Thanks......
So you mean that you changed the spring on the shock to lower the BB & slacken the HT angle, & slid the crowns down on the staintions .25 of a inch?Dropped the Crowns down .5" to .75" on the Fox 40.

I really don't think changing the spring helped it drop any. Now sliding the crowns down did help.So you mean that you changed the spring on the shock to lower the BB & slacken the HT angle, & slid the crowns down on the staintions .25 of a inch?
Thanks for the help
Think about that one.So lowering the the crowns slackened it
Slackened it more no, but got it to 65 degrees yes. I think it was more slack when I got it.So lowering the the crowns slackened it AND dropped the BB? How much did the BB drop?
yo...you bringing yourself to Sugar Mtn? If so, make plans to either hit Windrock before or after bro.Giant Glory is the best bike I have ever ridden. Enjoy
wow thats low pressure in your world cup. im running 150lbs and im only 160So what are you guys running for rear shock setup. I'm around 6ft 180lbs on a 17" frame. I'm running the stock spring, with no propedal, volume adjuster so I can just see the second grey line and about 100 psi in the chamber.
Curious to see how other people are running theirs. (also boxxer wc with 145 psi)
you serious? i noticed the first time i got on the bike!Anyone notice that the Glory's glory hole is not centered in the downtube? The whole rear suspension assembly is assymetrical! I didn't realize until I ripped my DHX out to get it Pushed.
Im probably not going to make it out there this yearyo...you bringing yourself to Sugar Mtn? If so, make plans to either hit Windrock before or after bro.
I would tell you, but i've no idea! 0 propedal and volume adjuster in the same place as yours (had to adjust that up from zero at ft.bill) but haven't got a shock pump yet!So what are you guys running for rear shock setup.

How could it be slacker, if the original HA is 65,5?Slackened it more no, but got it to 65 degrees yes. I think it was more slack when I got it.
Well when you take away 2 1/2 inch spacers and a 1/4 spacer it drops the top crown down. That will push the fork out a little more and make it slacker. I measured mine to be at 65d. Stock it was 66d.How could it be slacker, if the original HA is 65,5?
I just read the through the 08 catalog.
Glory DH isn't much different except for the blue ano 729's.
Glory 0 comes with a 66RC3 and ROCO TST, looks really good.
He is right, I will try to scan some pictures from the catalog. Also you can buy the glory frame set for 08. I dont have the pricing on it yet. All glory frames will be availible in late september, so I imagine thats when the completes will be availible.. Ohh yeah there is also two models of the glory 0, I cant remember then name of the other one but its silver with a pink 8 on the tt.I just read the through the 08 catalog.

I had 1/4 spacer in the middle of the headset and top crown and a 1/8 spacer in the middle of the top crown and the stem. The stantions were out about 1/2 inch over the top crown. I was running Easton EA70 low rise DH bars. The head angle was dead set on 65d.how much are you slacking these out ?
ive got about a half inch of tube through the upper crown which is right on top of the headset.
any shock adjustment reccomendations air pressure reccomendations. i just got a 06 with a 4.0 on it so no chamber adjustment.
all i have to say is those stock bars raceface evolve dh are the only bars ive ever bent but i did hit a tree . bike is so much nicer with 27" bars.
