GT Force : many questions

noppy

Hi,

well i just treated myself to a GT force 1.0 frame 08/09 but brand new. Its a bare frame so i have a few questions with regards to measurements. If anyone has a GT force and knows the answers it would be greatly appreciated or if you dont have one but know the specs that would also be brill.

Bottom bracket size?
Max fork length ?
Shock i2i ? (ithink its 190)
shock reducer sizes?

Thanks

Bottom bracket size is easy - simply measure the BB shell. Takes a standard BB (ie cartridge type or external such as GXP and Hollowtech - and in the case of the latter, come with spacers for 68mm or 73mm shells). So just measure the width of the shell.

Most early forces were 140mm - I would not go higher than 150mm

Shock is a 190x51. Hardware, well will depend on the shock you go for, but you may have to measure across the mounting points of the frame.

thanks supersonic.

The bottom brackets measures 73 but what is the other size i need.
on my stumpjumper its 68/118
does that mean when i swap the crank over i need 73/121

Thanks
