Dogbone measurements

Post by Tarwetijger » Sat Mar 13, 2010 6:25 pm

For some reason I have been saving bikeparts for a while, I just found a pile of dogbones in my garage. I would like to experiment with it a bit, but what are the dimensions of the original TRX dogbones? Could that be 179 mm?
I happen to have 172 mm, 169 mm and 182 mm. The last one would actually lower the rear, right?

My standard dog bones are 182mm . From memory I made a set with hole centres 6 - 8 mm less ( 174 mm ) that gave a rear end lift of about 30mm .

Okay, I'll try 172 mm then. Cheers.
