Great looking bike! What are your thoughts on the 20,5mm offset tripleclamp?

Thanks! Yeah when I bought the bike stock it comes with 22mm offset and i felt like you had to force it to corner but now it corners inside a bit easier, haven't noticed much high speed stability sketchiness at all. Also make sure you get your suspension sag and clickers re adjusted when you change offsets because it totally changes the frame geometry.

Okay, i have had my eyes on the X-Trig ROCS clamp that are adjustable(20 and 22mm). The tracks that i usually ride are relatively tight and slow speed so changing the offset could be a good modification!

I just got a 16 and I was trying to decide whether to make it look like a factory edition or go the flo route. Gonna do it flo orange now. Does acerbis not make a flo orange air box ? Pieced it out today but can't get that one part.

Not sure if it comes with the flo air box or not but you really can't tell without it.
