Video of first trail tests of my 150mm suspension Begode Master.
Building on my previous modifications that increased the travel to 125mm and in a quest to further improve the off road handling of my Begode Master V2 I have managed to increase the suspension travel to 150mm. I believe that this is more suspension travel than any current EUC and for hard core off road use it really makes a difference.
After watching a teardown video of the Begode Extreme I saw an opportunity to modify the Master stanchion design to allow the end partially past the pedal hanger when uncompressed. After modifications the the pedals ride 25mm higher when uncompressed than as stock and although ground clearance isn't great when bottomed out there is still about 50mm. I will upload a build video and CAD files soon if anyone is interested.
I have also designed a new linkage to use a DNM Burner RCP2S 240mm shock. Initial testing is very positive and the off road handling and comfort is further improved.
