Helluva way to start

Re the offset, I was given some good information a little while ago

Hope this helps you, although its specific to the DH Procomp offsets


DH Procomp Wheel with 335 hubs can not add rings
DH Procomp Wheel with 460 hubs can add 1ea. 1/8 rings. = 4.04 oz. 114g
DH Procomp Wheel with 585 hubs can add 2ea. 1/8 rings. = 474oz. 134g
DH Procomp Wheel with 710 hubs can add 3ea. 1/8 rings. = 545oz. 154g
DH Procomp Wheel with 835 hubs can add 4ea. 1/8 rings. = 6.17oz. 175g

DH ProCOmp II with 335 Does not fit.
DH ProCOmp II with 460 Does not Fit.
DH ProCOmp II with 585 Does Fit. But no extra rings.
DH ProCOmp II with 710 hubs can add 1ea. 1/8 rings. = 4.04oz. 114g
DH ProCOmp II with 835 hubs can add 2ea. 1/8 rings. = 4.74oz. 134g

Also, re the above info. Rings = weights (VP brass knuckle weights)

i just got a set of used SLW V1 from a friend, im running 600 front, 475 rears. seems to be what most run, if I remember correctly.

Thanks for all the help I was also wondering what do I need to keep on hand such as spares incase stuff breaks ?

Hey Lucky ! nice rig
Looks like a performer and probably will be when you'll change the upper links with axial bent 30° 6x101mm, much better than the plastic stock ones and inexpensive, usable with the stock ends !!!

And FYI, the chart that is posted above is for DH wheels. The hubs are different for the SLW wheels. Also, depends on what width wheel you are running. I'm going to be putting 475s on my SLWs, but they are .7s. Also, are you running knuckle weights? How much weight do you want? The size of the hub will limit the space available. So there are a few things to take into account when choosing.

[lucky7487]

Yeah Ordered a set of SLW V3's 1" with 600 and 475 hubs. Also ordered chaotic crawlers steering linkage hopefully the will get here soon still Need to order knuckle weights

[lucky7487]

New chaotic steering linkage installed today
