    Hi man, I was wondering can I just buy a crown race to fit my Fox 40’s? I’ve ordered the 29 inch 2022 version. So instead of having to take the crown race washer off my old forks, I could just buy a new one so I only need to install the new one on my Fox forks?
    If so, do you know what size crown race I would need exactly? I appreciate the help in advance

  • @dannyjames8350
    @dannyjames8350 8 місяців тому

    Hello bud, thank you for this very helpful video. Can you please educate me as to why it must have a MTB style / Cane Creek headset, and not the tapered bearings that come as standard on the surron ?
    Having spoken with a couple people locally and reading on forums online, some people suggest just sticking with the original tapered bearings when doing the Fox40 upgrade.
    I am in the middle of this upgrade right now and the tapered bearings seem to tighten up and operate as they should. So just wondered if it absolutely essential to swap these bearings and why that would be. Thanks !

    • @thepedaltech
      @thepedaltech  8 місяців тому

      You can stick with the tapered bearing if you have the drop upper clamp. If you have 27.5 fork with flat upper clamp, you have to at least change the upper bearing to reduce headtube length as the fox 40 stanchions are not long enough for that stack height. And no you can't just slide the fork legs up like a moto. They need to stay in the exact place they came. Watch my Marzocchi install video and I may explain it better there.

    • @thisisme7587

    Hi, great video.
    I just went to fit my Suron front wheel but there is a 1.2mm gap between the hub spacer and the Fox40 fork leg. So 0.6mm each side of hub. Brand new bike brand new forks.
    Did you have the same issue?

    • @thepedaltech

      No issue on any of the ones I have done. But 1.2mm shouldn't be enough to cause a problem

    • @thepedaltech
      @thepedaltech  Рік тому

      You basically just need the fork(27.5 fox 40). Then the best thing would be to get an upper drop clamp so you don't have to run the mtb style headset. In this situation we had flat clamp so we ran mtb style headset.

  • @R53_trackaddict
    @R53_trackaddict Рік тому

    Definitely cut that tube too short. Wouldn't be surprised if you bottom out now the bottom triple tree is going to contact the duat covers. You have reduced the travel by raising the stantions in the clamps.

    • @thepedaltech
      @thepedaltech  Рік тому

      No there is no problem the stanchions, they are as low as they can go. Cutting the steerer tube has nothing to do with that. That's why we run the mtb style upper cup. The ideal thing would be to run a drop clamp on the top. In this situation there was about 207mm of stanchion showing from top of seal to lower clamp. These forks are only 203mm travel.

    What type of triple clamp bearings were those? I noticed you didn’t use a drop clamp ? Did you have 8 inches of travel from the dust cover on the fork seals to the bottom of the bottom triple clamp ?

    • @thepedaltech
      @thepedaltech  Рік тому

      Yes had 205mm of stanchion between clamp and seal. We have a cane creek zero stack headset in this one, which is shorter stack height compared to the stock tapered style moto headset. 2021+ 29” fork doesn’t need drop clamp with either headset. The 27.5 will need drop clamp with the stock headset.

      Apparently everyone is complaining about the stock roller bearing setup. I'm sure there are better quality ones that will work just fine, but we are a bike shop so that's what's available and seems to be what people are using.

    • @thepedaltech
      @thepedaltech  Рік тому +1

      Both can work. But the 29" fork is better option in my opinion. If going 27.5 then you have lack of tire clearance if you wanted to go bigger and you would have to change the headset to a bicycle style headset to reduce the stack.
