Deviate Claymore FAQ
Answers to common questions regarding the Claymore!
No, the bike and all the parts arrive unassembled and require a full build.
We suggest around 30% for most riders, but this will vary depending on terrain and personal preference.
No - a standard 126 link chain will work with even a 12 speed Shimano or Sram set-up.
ZS44/28.6 upper and a ZS56/40 lower headset cup.
Absolutely. We have two lower ISCG-05 tabs which allow the use of a lower guide/bash.
The Claymore is not designed to work with 27.5” or 27.5”+ wheels. It is designed for 29” wheels.
We suggest a 170-180mm fork with a 44mm offset. A 51mm offset is compatible and will lead to a slightly more lively steering feel. We do not recommend triple clamp or dual crown forks with the Claymore.
The Claymore will work with most coil or air shocks on the market - we recommend a mid-mid initial tune. We can’t guarantee that a specific shock will have clearance. The shocks available on our online store are all compatible. Please note that shocks with rear rebound adjustment may be problematic to adjust.
We’ve designed The Claymore to run 2.6” tyres.
