Two more days to enter the Secret Santa!
Entries must be in by midnight on November 29th. We're kicking off the 2024 Secret Santa! Exchange gifts with other monkeys - from beer and snacks, to bike gear, to custom machined holiday decorations and tools by our more talented members, there's something for everyone.
Same with my e*thirteens. I'm running one 2.5mm spacer drive side and no spacers non-drive, chainline is good, chainstay clearance is tight.
My GOD!!!!!!!!
Yeah sounds similar to me I have to run both spacers on the drive-side and no spacers on non drive-side. Also had to space my mrp g2 quite alot to not rub the swingarm. Other than that she went together smoothly

I dunno, seat's scuffed and the tires aren't new... 7.5
(Kidding. Looks rad! A 10. I want...)
It's also missing the rear wheel valve cap... fail.
sick!
a squid
a bike for each tentacle?
nahhh ....i just have two...
So for each Testicle unless you are pulling a Lance on us?
funny you mention that...i did have this surgery a while back...haSo for each Testicle unless you are pulling a Lance on us?
Both of the arrows facing forward (away from you when sitting on bike) indicate your setting. Steep arrows facing forwards is the default position, which indicates the steep HA setting - which is what your bike is currently in.
Both cups need to be removed and installed after rotating 180deg for slack setting.

But how does it handle eastcoast rox, which are scientifically more gnar
please, im using Undead with CCDB air, but i dont get full travel, even with 40% SAG, i like to use no more that 30%, i will change to XV air Can, anyone know if its fits? i noticed that my regular CCDB air is too close to air valve
And anyone try this XV CCDB, how does it fell?
thanks for all
The XV air can is not available yet... I was told late March or April timeframe.
Some guys over at mtb-news.de are arguing that the air-port between the air-chambers is too small therefore they make it bigger:

Unrelated to your question, but have you considered running a coil shock? The Undead is fairly progressive at end of stroke and would likely perform better with a coil shock, even though many people are running the CCDB air in progressive bikes.
I found the frame worked great with a little less than 30% sag, I think 40% is excessive. By all means try the XV can (maybe Kevin can tell you if it fits, email him), but I'd suggest trying a coil shock sprung for 28-30% sag at some stage if you get the chance.
Hey guys, I'm not trying to be a jackass here, but does anyone have an undamaged Undead box? I really like the illustration and was thinking of getting it framed up.
Ask kev if its possible to get one.
I'm the same height as you and feel very comfortable on the L, it's not a small bike by any means but I think it's a perfect fit for your height - and you'll more than likely find the M too small.
Given your preference for smaller bikes you might find it a bit big, but if you hadn't mentioned that, I would firmly suggest the L.

or maybe just ask for a high res image file and get it printed on canvas or something
im using HSC and LSC full open, but dont give me full travel, i want to ride with 28% SAG, i think XV will be great
for me Air shock is the way to go, i can adjust the bike for each track, here in brazil we dont have real DH tracks like maribor, Ft. william and etc, and i need a shock to ride easy, medium, expert tracks, and to ride garbanzo race and candian open at whistler, i think only one shock fits all this rides, its a dh air shock (sorry my english,,hhahaha)
Hi Everyone,
Great thread. I received my warranty frame in the fall and I am just starting my build, yes I know... Just a quick question, is the RC4 from my revolt a direct compatible swap to the undead; shock length and spring weight? This all being based on the assumption that I didn't get too fat over the winter.
Thanks for the help and I will be sure to post pictures.

It'll bolt right on. Kevin suggested going up 50# on spring rate to me because of less friction in the linkage.
Last summer I was around 165lbs and ran a 350# spring with 150-160psi on my RC4. This winter I hit the gym and am down to 145lbs. I ran a 300# spring and the same pressure last month when I rode. I think a 325# would be ideal for me at this weight.
Next time I ride I'm going to try out the Vivid I had tuned at Vorsprung with the 300# spring. I'm hoping it keeps some of the plow and adds a little more pop. If not I'll bump up to a 325# and give that a try.

Raingauge,
Thanks for the info. I will try to hunt down a heavier spring.

Now that I read that again it doesn't make any sense; but that's what I was told. You'd think if there was less friction you'd want a lower spring rate. Maybe I'm not remembering the conversation correctly.
I do know I ran a 350# spring last season tho.

When I first got my undead I ran too light of a spring and it rode rough and harsh as hell. Asked KEv what to do and he suggest #50 heavier as well and wallah. totally different bike.
without looking at leverage rates for the Undead, maybe less friction means higher leverage resulting in need for higher spring rate.
