The seatstay/link chips can be installed for either a 27.5” or 29” rear wheel. See next figure,
lower. The selected position of the chip in either the 27.5” or 29” wheel position can be
made independently of the positions of either the rear shock leverage or rear dropout chips.
Secure the bike in a work stand first. Before working on the suspension linkage, remove the
wheel. Take addtional steps to support the swingarm from dropping or moving unexpectedly.
Removal/Installation Points:
• Always clean the mounting hardware and frame interfaces with a clean, dry , lint-free
shop towel prior to assembly.
• Clean and re-grease the pockets where the chips are inserted. See next figure inset.
• Lightly grease the spacers. See figure, page 24.
• Always re-apply threadlocker indicated, and lightly grease under the bolt heads
• Install the corresponding rear wheel size.
Match the installed seatstay/link chips position with the wheel size to be installed in the
rear dropouts.
After making a change to the chip position and installed wheel, make sure the rear
brakes are set-up correctly for the dierent wheel and that the brake operates normally
before riding.
