similar here I was a Shimano guy (XTR) and had Fox forks all along but tested the SRAM drivetrain and loved it...so go the fork too....bad...QC not there and this happened b4 already with previous models in 2009/10...so looked for a Fox but you cant get a black fork(100mm) how retarded!!! Even though they are on bikes (OEM) I called Fox and asked what would I do if I had a black one and broke it and wanted a replacement, they said call the bike manufacturer!tneker said:I waited 2 months to get new lowers and they were still offset. At least with the replacement set I was able to get my brake installed and adjusted. I have decided to keep until I have had a chance to confirm if I have any issues on the trails once the snow melts and I can hit the trails. Unbelievably frustrating considering the cost of these forks. I bought a Reba XX and a complete SRAM drivetrain for my new Niner Air 9. I was previously a Shimano guy so I feel like a went all in with a conversion to the SRAM drivetrain and now I am questioning the decision.:madman:
My 2010 Reba 29er was quite obvious. Looking @ the of the rear of the fork brace and top of tire centerline were offset almost a 1/4"..bloo said:hmm, didn't realize this was a huge issue. i haven't event check my RLT fork for this. anyone have pics of this so i know exactly what to inspect on my bike?
oh thanks for this, i'll check this out. but if it's as obvious as KEEN says, I think I got lucky too.Adim_X said:This issue has been discussed in great lengths, its on page 4 of the 29er forum if my linky fails. Many pics.
