Handlebars wrapped around, looks like a screw took off paint. But unsure.

Sounds the same as other parts with coin test except for the fact that paint is missing so material is diff. Isn’t soft to the touch and hasn’t changed in over a year.

Bike rental setup with a 27.5 rear wheel but 29” setup on the ibis ripley Dw flip chip

Rented a bike and noticed, now hours away from the shop, it’s running a mullet setup.

29x2.4 front, 27.5x2.5 but the flip chip is set to 29”.

It’s some technical single track but nothing crazy. Need tools to flip the shock and I’d prefer not to do that.

Besides what I imagine would be a lower BB and a geometry difference, anything else worth noting?

I typically prefer hardtails and often lock out my rear shock.

I let the shop know already as to make sure if any damage occurs it’s their fault, not mine.
