Building my Own Bike

[SIKKO_X2]

hey guys,
its been a long time since ive posted but my build is under way. my DHZ swingarm arrived and now im looking at rear shocks.

im looking at the DNM MST-BAG, but i would love to hear your thoughts on this and other shocks.
cheers

Chance of some pics?

 

[SIKKO_X2]

ill throw some pics up when i get a chance. so far its just a bare frame and swingarm. i will be getting the frame powder coated before i put the rear shock on

 

[SIKKO_X2]

also, when using the dnm mst-bag, which spring would you recommend? 350lb or 1000lb?
this bike will mainly be used for bashing and mild to medium jumping and i weigh around 70kg
cheers

 

[rider456]

350lbs, 1000lbs is way to hard!

 

[)(_COZA_)(]

it depends what sort of swingarm you've got,, do you have a A style swinga or a normal mono swinga??
& how much do you weigh?

[SIKKO_X2]

[SIKKO_X2]

yeah those 2 forks are different lengths, one is 645mm and the other is 735.
which length is best suited for a midsized crf style bike?

 

[)(_COZA_)(]

umm idk? lol but i think forks that fit crf style bikes are 645mm cause these forks are 635mm and it sais that they are crf style forks..GOLD ANODIZED USD FRONT FORK 635MM CRF STYLE PIT BIKE - eBay Other Makes, Bike Parts, Motorcycle Parts, Accessories, Cars, Bikes, Boats.
