Sorry Mate I Take That back Just Realized about the freedom disc


Torrington, Connecticut, United States
I guess I'm kind of alone on really digging this product. Its definitely not intended for every rider, but for the right bike and the right biker, this little piece of technology is invaluable.
In my opinion this little nugget of a product is the missing link for a one bike quiver that could actually do everything. Take a bike like the Voltage FR for example. This is a bike that was intended to have a morphing personality. Set it up with a DH fork and you have a bike that is capable of tackling the steep and gnarly, put a 130mm single crown on it and you have an all mountain, trail bike that can compete it a world class slopestyle contest. In concept its great, but up until now the real limiting factor on designing a bike like this has been the ability to achieve the desired head angle while adjusting the travel to up to two or three inches. Without this product there will always be a compromise. With a fixed head angle, fork height and bottom bracket height are the only two factors contributing two the overall head angle. You can limit how much bottom bracket drop you will get when putting in a shorter rear shock by using different length shock mounts, however dropping your fork two inches will always lower the front of your bike approximately two inches ( 2/3 of 2"s with a fixed rear shock length). Lowering the front of the bike is what you want on a shorter travel bike, but it becomes very limiting when seeking the right geometry.
So back to the Voltage FR. Set up with a 180 mm talas and this headset, you can have two bike with perfectly dialed geometry in one. At 180mm of travel in the front and rear the bike sits with a bb height in the high 13s and a head angle of 65 degrees. Dialed. Put on a shorter rear shock with longer shock mounts, lower your fork to 140mm and you have a bike with a 67 degree head angle and a 13ish" bb height. Almost dialed. Rotate your gimbal and bam, dialed! 68 degree head angle just like you dreamed of.
