DO YOU OFFER A LIGHT SHOCK TUNE FOR LIGHTER RIDERS?

We do not – We found the leverage curve of our bikes leaves the shock very tunable. We have successfully set up riders from 95 lbs. to well over 230 lbs.

What bashguard / chainring protection can I run on the Rail?

The Rail27 is not currently compatible with any bash guard offerings.

Can I buy an aftermarket Fox rear shock for the Rail?

You can – You will need to order the shock directly from Fox and ensure you purchase the correct tune for our bikes. This is important to maximize how awesome your Revel can be! Fox has a tune guide for our bikes on file. Unfortunately due to our agreement with Fox, you are not able to buy Fox suspension directly from Revel unless is ships on your new bike.

What is the largest water bottle I can run on the Rail?

22 ounces is the sweet spot – When using a side-loading water bottle cage, our frames fit a standard Revel 22-ounce water bottle. With a hands-free cap, these bottles are the best option around. Insulated bottles or larger sizes will need to be physically tested for clearance. You can also use Fidlock bottles for extra space!

What chainline should I run on the Rail?

52mm

How should I route the cables and hoses under the bottom bracket?

Our in-house builders prefer to cross the derailleur cable over the rear brake cable. That being said, there is no wrong way; You can run the brake line and derailleur housing to cross under the bottom bracket or not. Just be sure to leave enough slack under the bottom bracket so that the bike can fully cycle through its travel without binding. A good rule of thumb is for the cables to be level with the teeth of your chainring.

Can I run a coil on the Rail?

For sure! But we feel strongly about specifics– We almost exclusively recommend Push coil shocks for our bikes. We tested every other coil shock on the market, and this is the only one we want to sell. You will love it.

Can I buy touchup Paint for the Rail?

Yes! We have touch up paint for select color-ways, but if we don't have what you're looking for, we have great luck with nail polish!

Can I run 29" wheels on the Rail27.5?

The Rail27.5 was design to operate at maximum capacity with 27.5" wheels and 27.5" only.

What is the largest chainring I can run on the Rascal?

36T ROUND / 34T OVAL.
