Do you have a suck down condition on the fork? It will sit a bit deeper in the stroke at rest than a normal bike due to the heavy weight of the levo but 38s are especially susceptible to getting sucked down.
So far feels better than the 40mm renthal that had more degrees of offset.
I am taking this approach to the steering center of axis: NSMB.com - Paul Aston's 210mm Do Everything Nicolai G1
Cascade LT kit
165mm EXT E Storia
180mm Vorsprung Smashpot Fox 38
Headset in 0 degree and rear in low mode
SQLabs 35mm stem and 12 degree backsweep bar no spacers under stem.
I set the Smashpot to 180 assuming the bike would sag deep given the high weight of the bike.
Running great so far...
Hey Polo, did you shim the 210 down to 200 or left it alone? I can't stand how much this stock 175mm sticks out and am thinking of using my extra OneUp 210 with a shim. When you said your inseam was 88cm is that your real inseam (using a level, plumb line etc) or is that your pant length?
