anyone running a Pro Pedal on their Tracer? If so, is it worth the investment?
Thanks

I tried a pro-pedal Float with and without an AVA, and thought it was very harsh no matter how I tried to set-up the air. It did indeed pedal real nice on the flats, but got skiddish on rough climbs. I think your money can be better served.

The best shock in my opinion for the Tracer is a Pushed Float.

i installed a ´04 fox vanilla pro pedal with a ti spring on my tracer and it works great! result is reduced bobbing and especially together with the uzzi sl link 4.5" of buttery travel (however at the cost of a 14.2" bottom bracket!)

I tried a pro-pedal non AVA, was very harsh, did not feel like I was getting full traval.

I now have a Pushed AVA float, world of difference.

BTW: I recently got the Uzzi one piece link, and I measured travel at closer to five inches. The geometry changes from raising the bottom bracket are offset by the marathon S 120 I'm running.

Just curious. How high is the bottom braket from the center of the axle to the floor with that setup? With the bike leveled of course.

Looks to be about 14 1/2 inches. It's at 131/4 inches when I'm sitting on the bike. (couldn't get a pic of that)
