30s rule

the NC30 is the LAW ...

IL4's for the win!

Is the 35 linkage to increase the 30 rear ride height?

If so, what is a good measurment for both the 30 and 35, I see the 35 is simple to alter with a spacer under the frame top mount.

I find an increase of 15-20mm on the RC30 makes it steer to my liking.
Thanks.

Dave.

Yes, the linkage is to compensate for the 17 inch rear wheel - raised approx 17mm. If you keep your 18 inch then you get the benefit of this. Worth doing.

I also have a longer shock and so have a raise of 30mm or so. Miles better and more pointy which is what I like.

Yeah Dave it is, so long as you're still using the '30 rear wheel. If you use the '35 rear wheel you then need a shock with adjustable ride height to raise the rear. 10mm longer shock raises the rear by about 25mm from memory.

Damn you and your quick fingers!

lol..sat at home waiting for a conf call to start...so had to get in there!!

I have now ridden both my NC 30 and 35, and as far as I can make out the 35 fades at the top end but pulls better in the midrange , and seems more stable, but steers just as quick.

Which is considered to be the "better bike", I find both superb.
