Cascade Components Santa Cruz Nomad V4 - Tuning Umlenkung / Link

Selling my Cascade Link for the Nomad V4, as I have already sold the frame separately. Always served me well and rode really well compared to the original link.

Now that I'm on a different bike and no longer have the frame, the next one can have fun with it.
Bearings are still running well and the thread is still in good condition.
There are of course a few visual blemishes on the underside due to stone chips, but that's inevitable in this mounting location.
There's not really much more to say.

"Confidence-inspiring performance made possible through a leverage curve that improves small bump sensitivity and bottom out resistance at the same time. The Nomad LT link allows the bike to track across rough terrain like never before and can soak up heavy impacts with ease, allowing you to ride faster and go bigger.

The Nomad LT link was specifically designed to offer a more progressive leverage curve, increase travel, and lengthen chainstays all while maintaining stock pedaling characteristics. By making the suspension more progressive it's possible to tune for increased small bump sensitivity while retaining the same bottom out resistance, increase bottom out resistance while retaining the same small bump, or a bit of both. Coupled with increased travel, it really turns the Nomad 4 into the ultimate enduro/freeride/dh quiver killer! The increased progression also provides much needed bottom out resistance for coil shocks and aggressive riding.

Whether your goal is to make your everyday ride burlier or build the perfect park bike, the Nomad LT link offers a substantial performance increase. The additional travel with the longer shock is well managed. It provides supple small bump sensitivity off the top and has enough mid-travel support to feel poppy off jumps and solid through turns.

Over forking a bike to make it descend better can lead to suspension that feels out of balance. As the suspension compresses it reaches a point where the rear is no longer compressing and the front is. This can moves your weight forwards and steepens the head angle. The Nomad LT link balances the rear suspension with a longer travel fork well. Running the 190 mm setup, the head angle slackens at the bottom of travel for improved stability when you need it most.
