• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

FOBO on an F3L

I have Fobo's on my RT and love them. On my new 2017 F3L there doesn't look like there is enough room on the fronts to put Fobo's without extending the valve stem. Can Fobo's be used with the stock valve stem? Thanks Wayne

You will have to use an extension. No other option.
 
It depends on the wheel. Some, the FOBOs fit on stock stems, some they do not. The stock stems are very short.

On the Blade wheels, its the short stems that work well, longer ones push the FOBO into the brake caliper.
 
2017 F3T matte black

Just put them on my new 17 f3t no problem. i understand that they will not work on the shamrock wheels.
 
Yeah, I put them on my stock 16 F3-L stems with no problems either, Spanky. but Wayne’s 17 model wheels have more spokes than mine, so I wasn’t sure if they would fit on his....

FOBO on F3L

I put them on my 17 F3L but had to use extenders. Bought the shortest possible ones I could find. I think they are 3/4 in long.
 
Thanks everyone. I can barely get my fingers on the cap to get it off so I'm going to look for some extensions. Thanks again, Wayne
 
Didn't work for me

I bought the FOBO's and couldn't get them on my 2016 F3L - and didn't want to mess with extensions so I sold them. :banghead:
