      2.5 could be more grippy and would probz look better in my opinion BUT boune wise i doubt it

      More bounce, greater puncture protection. I think there are more pros that that though.

      Don't go beyond 25 degree rise as you wont be able to pull the bike up vertically for up-to-front and hooks, length wise 130-150mm.

      okay , i've gone back to my stock stem , (130 x 25) and waiting for a few stackers , 30mm enough?

  17. didn't bother with it in the end guys , cheers for the comments anyway
  18. don't want to spend £60 (is it?) . i already have a 2 bolt and 4 bolt , i just want to get it right first time on the bike , dont wanna take he bolts in and out .( just done a bit of a bodge on the threads )
  19. just wondering if anyone has tried this as my frame still flexes with a 4 bolt booster. I was thinking putting a 2 bolt booster under the 4 bolt? and another question , is a bit of flex good for the brake? stupid idea? good idea? cheers matt
