Hey Jilles,

Great job at the weekend, and thanks for posting the setup, appreciated

A few things I noticed over the standard base, if you wouldn't mind explaining the reasons behind them;

1) Raised front roll centre (0.5 and 1mm shims). I understand the reason for the difference to get the anti dive, but was it a case of trying to reduce the front grip a little? or improve the reaction?

2) 2.5mm lower deck?

3) Shocks in one hole all round. I guess your were looking to slightly numb the initial reaction? This change working in conjunction with the lower deck maybe?

Thanks in advance
Ed
