I just finished installing an EXT Ferro on my Talaria Sting R MX4. This video was very helpful. I asked for a stem cut to use a single 10mm spacer and you guys delivered in a big way! Thank you so much for the great service and communication. Your team is the best in the business right now. Can't wait until the snow melts a little bit later this week! 🙂

The pre-installed lower race is such a sick idea - great service guys!!

Definitely getting this the pre-insulation makes it so much easier on the user

I love the service y’all provide for the surron riders out there. Wish more companies did work like y’all, there is def a market for it now since y’all are sold out on the heavy fastace tune baby!!!

Worth mentioning about the silver washers and the spacer with the o-ring that needs to be installed below the lower bearing. Need at least qty 2 of the silver washers and the black aluminum spacer with the o-ring.

can't wait to order one.

Why you didn’t install the stem lock on the ext?

when installing the second shock, how did you align the two? by measuring the offset up top and making them the same? or would installing the axle and tightening everything at that point work?

Hello, is it not possible to align the two arms like on a motorcycle? the right foot cannot slide on the wheel axle? Thank's

Great video guys, some good advice here on fitting them 👍🏼 But I noticed you have replaced the standard upper bearing with a zero stack one. Is this something you have to do when fitting these forks or can the standard surron upper bearing be used still?

that is totally up to you. If you are running 21" then yes, use a ZS headset, but if you stick to 19" then you can keep the OEM headset.

Will 100/80X16 Supermotos work with this fork?

I noticed that you did not address how to deal with a stem lock install, rather than the starnut. In fact, I didn’t even see you put a bolt through the steer tube to reach a star nut . I have a warp nine stem lock, currently holding my Dorado fork into my MX3, but I honestly don’t remember how that went….

The stem lock goes all the way through the steer tube and pulls the bottom and top triple clamps together. In order to install it you need to remove your front fender, slide the lower portion in through the bottom, put the correct spacing on top and pull it together from the top bolt. Be sure to do this without the fork tubes in the triple clamps. In order to install a stem lock you need to remove the star nut if there is one. The easiest way to do this is by punching it through the bottom

Hey gentleman, keep up the awesome work! Also, how are the wheels coming? Hey thanks guys! Got my 21 inch Excel installed and it is beautiful! Rides so nice now with the 100/90 19 on the rear! I made it work with the Talaria factory fork by removing the upper stem cup and installing new bearing directly into top of stem. This dropped my upper triple clamp more than half an inch, allowing me to lower my fork tubes 4/10ths of an inch. Definitely need more power now. Gonna try a 60 tooth sprocket and see if that gets me by in the meantime...

Can anyone advise , I’m thinking cutting steering stem to the same measurement as the original

Nothing wrong with doing that. The only reason to cut it shorter is if you have a direct mount stem and don’t want the steer tube to be as long

I am glad that you guys had the zero stack because I went from the dorado comps with a cane creek and I was concerned that these forks were meant to have the stock 1" spacer to have the "intended" distance between the crown and the lower triple clamp. Thanks for the video, it just saved me some time and money! Question though, EXT advises a frame clamp, but I see you don't have one, what are your thoughts on that

I can say something to the frame clamp. Definitely something you should have on the bike no matter what and there's no real reason not to have it. I have a friend who was doing some bigger jumps with the bike and didn't have the clamp on because he "thought it looked weird". Ended up cracking his head tube about 10 months later and now says it's his biggest regret not buying one. For $20 you can get one from warp9 and it'll save you in the end.

agreed, that part was missing in this video and shouldn't be. Anyone who rides aggressively should have this to help strengthen the head tube.

What is left of a Surron on that whole bike ?

@ChargedCycleWorks

Жыл бұрын

however much you want there to be? we have bikes like Gold Member that are nothing but the frame left. But our most common build is: 16/19 wheelset, fork, and cockpit enhancements. Some choose more power, but not everyone. There is a budget/build for everyone.

PRESSURE, CLICKS?

@@dougnoble8720 It's just a boost adapter, ALL MTB forks use boost these days and Surron is using the old hub standard that is years out of date. These are still MTB hubs and standards and it doesn't make sense for EXT to raise the cost of manufacturing the fork to go backwards in standards. A simple $5 boost adapter was a much better way to go.

40 bucks for one roller bearing is crazy

Roller Bearings are one of the most expensive types of bearings out there. The kit also comes with the Spacers that are needed and these spacers are so difficult to source even we have trouble keeping them in stock. Hopefully as availability improves we may be able to adjust the pricing on the kit. Thanks for the feedback.

2 stacks that's half the bike 😏
