When i built the Wednesday i did from day one plan to fit a suspension fork and dropper post and to ride the bike like this along with a set of plus wheels.
I don`t own a regular MTB and well this is my mountain bike with a fork fitted, Plus wheels and a dropper post.
Also with ongoing muscular pains in my shoulder blades i think from a prevous broken collar bone racing Enduro motorbikes over 20 years ago i need to stop knocking hell out of myself riding off road for fun...
Friend Ben offered a pair of Rock Shox Bluto`s for an agreed price and dropped them off at work on Friday and i fitted them this morning...
I don't need the supplied Wednesday through axle or post mount for the brake so left them on the fork...
Good news (for me ) is the steerer is the same 200mm length - i like a high bar and can still leave the set up as i like it...
Front brake using the direct mounts....
Only the front brake cable was a bit short on the longer non compressed suspension fork so was easy to extend using a cable adjuster and longer bit outer cable, then ran a new inner cable...
Job done and ready to ride tomorrow...
hi nice job !! can you tell me the spec of the bluto fork that you used please ?? ive got a wednesday i want to do the same with .
