  • Suspension done!

    Finally got it on after a million cuts and strained muscles haha and way too much time wasted haha. All in all happy with the drop and handling. Dam good for a cup kit. Im hoping the rear settles a little bit more but w/e.

                  Did you trim your rear bump-stops? Is it possible you're riding on them and that's what's preventing the drop?

                      My FK kit was about the same drop as yours. As I recall I think I trimmed one 'bump' off the stopper. You can get shorter stops online but I didn't see the point in buying something I could easily make. To be honest, it's been too long for me to remember which end of the stop I trimmed.
