bottom arm is 15 eye to eye. Think they are +2. Width is 43" squashed down very outside of tire. I wouldn't want it any more wide.

[killer_yfz]

Hmmmm I might go plus 3 then with 4:1 rims. My yfz is at 46.5 and its just about right in the woods around here.

[chopp124]

if u want to sell thay hood let me know.

[emullen]

I think 15" may be +1. What are your tie rods length. Think I have a chart from Laeger some where based on tie rods. Also if your at 43 now and have 3:2 wheels that's pretty narrow even with the -2" narrow frame. I forget what stock was exactly. Does anyone know. With +1 and 3:2 on a narrow frame you should be back to roughly stock and I don't think stock was less that 43" so I can't imagine tht those are +2. . It looks like your wheels are 3:2 off set is that correct? I'll have to measure my ST arms to compare. They are not on a bike at this time so I won't have total bike width but I can ask another buddy what he measures out at on his narrow bike with ST t pin and 3:2.

I have been trying to get a chart from Laeger on a arms and tie rods both ST and LT and also if there is a difference between std and narrow frame a arms. I know that the tie rod for a narrow is the same for a std frame that is set up with a arms one inch less ie. same tie rod length for a narrow +4 as a std +3 do to that they mount in the center of the frame Not sure on the upper a arms but the lowers are an inch longer on the narrow due to where it mounts on the frame one inch in ...........confused yet?

[croat1]

just measured my +1 ST protrax:
lower arm is 15"

[number5]

Alright I will re-measure it was dark out with flashlight in one hand tape in other.

[number5]

Ok I'm getting 45.5 now with straight edge off each tire with front end squashed down

[bradenc19]

Best looking woods bike i'd seen in a long time. Their needs to be more gncc rs than they are.
