Quite interesting!

I have an old spare A2Z adapter in the mancave, i removed it for the same reasons you did, although i replaced it with an Onza adapter.

I might hack my A2Z adapter up and fit it to my old 98 FSR ground control

I think it would look a bit better if all the silver bits were painted black as well mind!

Just got these from ebay



Gonna repaint the frame as well, I'm thinking either white or gunmetal gray. Course I might just do glossy black to for simplicity.

random fsr question, whats the best way to figure out what fork works, i want to upgrade my shot triple clamp judys to marazocchi Jr T, forks would these work?

They should work no problem. Just make sure that the steerer tube is 1 1/8 diameter and that it is long enough.

What flavour of JR T are you thinking of? They come in 100mm/130mm/150mm/170mm versions (from older models to newer models). If you have the BETD linkage you can run up to 150mm travel forks without messing up the geometry too much. I run a pair of '99 Jr Ts which are 130mm travel ones and I think they're pretty much perfect for the bike. In the near future though I'll be putting a 150mm Super T on so we'll see how that goes.

whats the widest tyres people are running on there fsr? currently i have some really old tioga's on there 1.95, will 2.1-2.2 fit? looks close on the rear frame?

I use Conti Mountain King II in 2.2 - seems like 2.3 might be possible, depending on the actual tire width.

Running a WTB Weirwolf 2.5 on mine atm. She's tight but doable. Made sure I got my LBS bloke to test it first.

So I know the shock is 6.5 x 1.5 with the stock link, but anyone tried or think I can run a 6.75 x 1.5 shock?
