Girvin ODS Help!
« Reply #31 on: October 11, 2007, 07:01:17 am »
Orange, I need your help. How do I remove the ODS shaft from the Girvin strut? It's been long enough since I put it together that I don't recall how it went together and I haven't found a good diagram or set of instructions. None came with my parts.

Is the shaft end threaded? I don't remember it being so, but bumping the strut-shaft screw didn't dislodge it and before I gave it a more vigorous thump, I thought I'd better ask. I put a bit of Kroil down the shaft to loosen it - maybe that will help.

If the shaft has a threaded end, is there a cross hole in the shaft to stop it turning? Or is there another technique? None of my non-marring jaw pliers can get through the spring to grip the shaft.

I'm looking forward to anyone's response on this.

Thanks.

Ed.

Hey, just joined here!  I've got a Pro-Flex 656 that I just bought this past summer and absolutely love it.  Anyway, I broke the plastic washer that separates the two rear elastomers.   By any chance would someone on here have an extra one lying around or an idea of how to replace it.  I've tried rapid descent scotland and they don't have any.  I'd love you forever if anyone has one.  I'm more than willing to pay for it also.  

Also, I am wondering how much you can modify they bike, since its so old.  Is there any way to put a new fork on the front.  And if anyone has a list of specs that would be greatly appreciated also.  Thanks.  Hope someone out there can help me!

Proflex 857 frame, polished aluminium 20" (large), carbon swingarm.

My mate has one for sale just want to see if any interest out there. Price not determined yet, but will be well under £100. Easton custom ProGram aluminium tubing, carbon rear swingarm. Has coil spring conversion on ODS shock.

Anybody interested? Located near Loughborough, UK.

Here is a pic of it as a complete bike. It'll be much shinier than in the picture as that was after some serious riding!!

856 Risse Genesis, S-arm w/Hammerhead, bearing mod
« Reply #43 on: October 25, 2007, 03:43:43 am »
The Risse Genesis is a couple of years old, perfect shape...does not leak, period.

http://www.risseracing.com/airshocks.shtml

The Swing Arm has Mike Billet's Hammerhead disk Brake Adapter, a very worthy upgrade. The swingarm has also been machined to accept real bearings which can be purchased anywhere. I will also toss in an extra set.
The bearing conversion is described here...

http://idriders.com/cgi-bin/YaBB_K2/YaBB.pl?board=news;action=display;num=1178625838

I would like to get $200 plus postage for everything.
USPS or pick-up only...sorry, UK guys. I'll wait for a few weeks before it all goes on eBay. email me at
epharhen@comcast.net
Parts left out cost nothing and cause no service problems.

Okay folks... this time I really mean it.
It's time to make room in the shop. Too many bikes says the wife. (I say not enough storage room.)
