POST RIDE THOUGHTS ON THE 27 5 POLYGON SISKIU T7
Рет қаралды 2,959
Жыл бұрынTHE #POLYGON #SISKIU T7 HAS ME REALLY IMPRESSED, ONLY A COUPLE OF GRIPES, THE BARS ARE TOO WIDE, FOR ME AT LEAST. I'VE GONE AHEAD AND TRIMMED 20MM OFF EACH SIDE BRINING THE TOTAL WIDTH DOWN TO A COMFORTABLE 740MM DOWN FROM 780MM. AND THE OTHER COMPLAINT IS THE FACT THAT THE REAR BRAKE LINE IS ROUTED INTO THE DRIVE SIDE HOLE. TYPICALLY, ALL MY BIKES HAVE ANYTHING ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE BARS ROUTED ACROSS THE HEAD TUBE AND THROUGH THE NON DRIVE SIDE AND THE REVERSE FOR ANYTHING ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE BARS, GETS ROUTED THROUGH THE DRIVE SIDE CABLE PORTS. I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE AN EASY SWAP OVER, BUT THINKING ABOUT IT FURTHER, ITS GOING TO BE A REAL PAIN IN THE BUT, SINCE I WILL HAVE TO ALSO REROUTE THE SHIFT CABLE AS WELL THROUGH A NEW RUBBER GROMET. ILL DO THIS MAYBE ONE EVENING WHEN I KNOW IM NOT GOING TO WANT TO RIDE.

Yes … it feels a little more mature 😊

I bought the gray as I'm pretty boring. I'm sure the green/yellow looks good in person, but will probably look dated soon enough.

What are the groves for in frame on the rear thru axle?

Like on the chain stay? It’s just a rubber protector that came on the bike. It’s very substantial 😂

@@MASHLEY69 That's not what I'm talking about. I bought a t7 and took wheels off and made them tubeless. I'm putting the back wheel back on and where the wheel goes back in to put axle back thru it there are 2 sets of groves in frame and was wondering if it had to go in a special way. I put back wheel back on but it didn't go in smaller grove but seems to be ok. I was just wondering

@@andrewduggan1961 oh yea I see. Sorry I’m not sure probably just part of the design of the frame. I’ve never really noticed. I’ll check it out next time I take the wheel off.

I'm guessing you're US based. Worldwide front brake on the right, and rear brake on the left is the more normal set up. It seems they just swap the lines left to right and dont rerouted it, if its heading to the US or similar set up country
