Pivot block shimming

[NeilP]

Most setups I've seen for the Cyclone specify that you shim the front and rear pivot blocks with either 1.0mm or 1.5mm spacers (normally by the same amount front and rear). You can use the Pro4 type spacers on the front/front and rear/rear blocks but you can't use them on the front/rear or rear/front blocks (if you catch my drift) because of the belt would catch. What do people use ?

I just use washers in the desired height and colour.

Yeh you need to use washers. You cant use the pro 4 shims on the ones your talking about because they dont fit anyway.

I use the Pro4 spacers. Just have to cut the inner ones in half.

Not one to say "told you so" but.... HPI Part No. Z815 fits the bill for 1mm :p

See you Sunday.

For the inner pivot blocks I use Jet Racing spacers. They come in a nice purple too! Got mine from the well known LHS in Swindon.

Thanks everyone. Washers/Spacers it is then !
