Angleset for 1st generation Spectral On

[EbikeTom]

Is anyone running an angleset on a first generation Spectral On? If so, which one?

Yes been running a Works Components 1.5 deg headset for about a year. No issues apart from it felt a bit weird for first few minutes of riding whilst getting used to slacker angles. Since then I’ve loved it and found it benefitted the handling.

Was this with the 1st generation on?

Interested in putting a 1.5 degree Works headset in my 2021 bike, unsure if there is any difference in the headset they used between the two distinct models?

Hello,
I want to share with you with my latest tune for my Spectral:ON AL. This is model year 2020 (frame 2019). I have installed Works Components -2degree angle set. For those who wants to buy this set - this is: "2.0 Degree EC44-ZS56 Angle Headset - Tapered Steerer Tube - Headtube Length: SET 3 110-119mm"
So after installation I have decided to put rear end in upper position in order to get a bit more of Bottom Bracket and seat tube steeper for uphill comfort.
After this setup my geo changed to: Head angle 65,6; seat angle 74,6; Bottom Bracket -26mm. Seems very solid for enduro riding up and down hill and I hope I won't shred my support on rocks so often as it was with original setup.
