2011 MTX handlebar with oft, will I need more rise?

[kimoajaj]

Hi!

I`m waiting for my OFT steering relocator kit right now, but I wonder if this will be enough to get a good setup for mountain riding/boondocking?

Will I need a taller riser and or a pivot riser?

I`m about 184cm tall.

Season is short and I want everything to be perfect

What setup are you other MTX guys running?


Thanks

Joakim

That's 7 foot 3 inches here in Minnesota. Our basketball team needs a new center. Can you dunk?

Just askin' ?

I got out for my first ride today after installing my relocator rollover valve and skidplate. Awesome stuff. The relocator makes the bars quite a bit higher. I can't believe that I am hearing myself say this but I think it might be too tall for me. I am 6'2". I like to do mostly technical riding and they seem a little tall. The improved steering is amazing. It's nice not to feel like I'm driving a bus.

One question Scott. Is that normal for the steering to be off a little after putting that kit on?

Step 24.

The easiest way to do it is to turn the front end of the relay rod ( heim joint ) in 3 turns.

Dang! I guess it helps to read all of the Instructions. Thanks for the great parts.

I'm 6'2" and am running the relocator with the stock mtx riser. I've thought about going up about an inch still, but after riding last weekend, I'm thinking of just leaving it as is.

Hi guys!

Scott, I suck at sports, I hate all kinds of team sports, sorry=P But I do work out regularly lol.

From what I hear you guys say I think I will be happy with only the OFT.

I tend to roll my sled from time to time, what is the most common part to break on the nytro when you roll it? hehe dumb question but still .. .

Oh and does the relocator bend easily?

 

[hugger70mtnmax]

If you bend that I think you'll have a lot more to worry about than the relocator.

Windshield is small and plastics are tight so rolling shouldn't be too much of an issue. I have rolled mine to get unstuck already and no issues

184cm is just over 6 feet tall. You should be fine with the stock riser. I am 193cm and have the OFT relocate with stock riser. Just buy it, you'll love it!!

I think it will add more stress where it mounted. I have bent one already, but its an easy fix. The relocator is awesome. I'm 183cm and it is perfect

Oops, bad math calculation there

I'm 180 cm, or 5'11" and I like the Nytro MTX with the OEM riser and our relocator. I have since mounted an NCI riser that is 1" taller than the OEM riser with a pivot mount base this year, but have not ridden with it yet.

I agree with scmurs.

You should'nt spend all your money on the Nytro. Get a basketball and hit the gym instead.

Thats what I do. Merry X-mas
