The bike featured in this video is my Santa Cruz Chameleon 8. I’m on a mission to build it into the ultimate do-it-all quiver killer mountain bike!

@@theshedMTB thank you! Yes, working on the fork was more straightforward and easier than I anticipated! It is a fair bit of travel! I was a little worried about going 160 but the bike feels so much better than it did at 140 now that the geo is balanced. It has the poppiness that it had when it was a mullet. I’m going to make another video diving into it more but I’m very stoked it on! Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching! 🤙
Very cool video. So if I wanna increase the travel of my Pike from 130mm to 140mm, I need a longer air spring of the right model #, that’s it? All other parts can be reused?
@@GokkunGuru thank you! Yes, that is correct! You only need to buy the air spring and of course replace the lube/fluids. I would suggest buying new wiper seals if your fork hasn’t had its 50 hour service recently. But it’s not necessary. Hope this helps! Thanks for watching!
@@NickandKatieMTBAwesome. Just ordered the kit. Got all the oils already. Thanks again! By the way I loved the older video of how you stripped the anodizing on your OneUp pedals to give it that chrome polished look. Super unique. OneUp should make a chrome version just like Title MTB’s Connect pedals.

Well done Nick! I need to do this with my Roscoe this winter 👍👍🇺🇸
@@MountaineerFPV thanks! Winters the perfect time for it! Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching! 👍
Seems like a lot of travel for that bike! Really good job on your tutorial. Rock shocks forks are a pretty good to work on I think.

@ I forgot it was a mullet extra travel just making up for that
@@theshedMTB exactamundo!
This is crystal clear, thanks!
@@VirgilRoger you’re welcome! Thanks for watching! 🤙
@NickandKatieMTB I've had the new air shaft for my Lyrik for months, might finally get around to it soon! This will be helpful.
@ heck yeah! You’ll be surprised how quick and simple it is once you’re done!
posting more? 🤙
@@Trails_trout back to back weekends! 💪
"as much as a hamster can bench press" - another specialty tool LMAO . Great video!
@@Bike4adventure they’re great because they don’t need calibrated, just gotta remember to feed them! 😂 thanks for watching!

@ that’s awesome! Happy to help!
Thank you! I love my OneUp pedals. They still look great to this day too! Silver/chrome is the best accent color!
