I did solve it with spacers underneath the direct mount stem plus the seat extender mount which pushes it back 27mm plus the seat rammed right back? It's not a problem for most, just my monkey long arms. BTW don't like stems longer than 35mm!
As Pole are making bikes to order it would be great...
I wish Pole would at least offer the option of a slacker seat tube. I've found my K3 Voima way to short in the seat to handlebar measurement meaning that your hands and arms get prematurely tired on a ride, I'm 6ft/183cm with monkey long arms? The only thing that has made it liveable is a seat...
Ahh just a thought for the screws they could be to hold the bottle cage on - think there x5 and about 8mm of thread - any longer and they could screw into the battery?
Not sure what the screws are for, but the magnet simply goes on the inflation valve on the rear wheel, so you might need a longer valve stem? The motor will pick up the wheel revolutions from the spinning magnet. Umm the O ring might be to put under lock ring for the chainring?
My Voima has been nick named 'Gold Member' by the lift operators in France and my mates call it the 'Cock Magnet' because everyone including non riders want to talk about it :LOL: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: 🤙
I find my Voima just fine to flip around in tight single track, the high BB is like older DH bikes which means you can swallow up those rocks and drops much easer without smashing the BB. My V4 Santa Cruz nomad it just terrible for cranks and BB ground impacting and that's with flip chip set in...
Ahh coolio your making progress then, the EXT fork looks nuts. The one upgrade I'd like to do is bin the air shock on the Voima and get a coil EXT with HBC🤙
Yeah, who decided that DH frames need a 150mm axle but an 'enduro' frame needs 148mm, why not the same???? Putting a 12 speed and...

NickyTee - how you getting on with the Fox 40's? I was wondering if a set of current lowers would fit all the older components - plus you can fart your forks when you feel the need :ROFLMAO: ??
Worth the upgrade to DHL, my Voima was sent on a Friday and I got it Tues the next week, as you can pay the import duty online before its even left. Experience with bike parts sent from Europe and Parcelfarce was about 4 weeks of waiting agony nightmare! :eek:
Owh bet you wish you still had the Brookline, there nuts! A coil for the modern 40's would be great.
Its bonkers just how small DH (and all?) bikes where back only around 10 years ago? The foes 2:1 I've got is large but feels like a small?! I've only ridden DH bikes and trails for years then...
Fantastic, it looks a little like the amazing Brookline Machine works, remember that? I also rode those grey Fox 40's for years, I'm kinda missing the ti spring they used to have, it's all fluffy air now :LOL:
My other old DH rigs where a Karpiel Armageddon 11inchs travel, GT IT Gearbox bike...
Yes I figured the the mudguard will fowl the lower crown if I bottom out so I've put in a extra token in and upped the pressure a bit to prevent a bottom out? I'm not allowed medically to do any harsh loads on my body till next year so it's all about mincing around doing easy stuff with no...
Hey NickyTee, here's some pics of the K3 Voima with 2022 Fox 40, I just fully compressed them as well to check clearance and did a bit measuring for you. I'm using Hope selecta headset 1.1/8", ZS44/28.6 - Type 2 and 1.5", ZS56/40 - Type E with a 1/5 to 1/8 reducer.
Pics below to give you more...
