Kenevo Gen1 2021 Kenevo BB Height is lower than geo chart??

[h.grenade]

The manual says that low flip chip should put the BB height at 347 with 2.6" tires. The problem is that when I measure it, I get 338. I even raised the fork tube in the triple clamp to about 3/16" from the top to try and raise it up a bit. Im sure it will rail corners like this, but I am pretty concerned about pedal strikes.

Anyone else have this issue or advice? thx

Run it in high. Low is too low, especially with an air shock.

Thanks Alex. For sure I will raise it, I just find it odd. Im guessing that they measure it with a 2.8 tire and that is about 10mm taller. I think this is actually lower than my Demo 8 : /

Manufactures fug the numbers all the time. Reach has grown 10mm on the geo charts, BB height wanders and the HTA changes depending on the year you look at it, BUT the frame hasn't changed.

Bike puts more weight on the front in the high setting and I like the forks as low as they can go.
