Working on your Mojo SL, SL-R, HD
The link assemblies on the Mojos are
designed to be easily removed and
replaced. Be sure to purchase a fresh
link set before removing the old ones to
skip any downtime. There are no bear-
ings to press out, nor any axles to ham-
mer. New Lopes Link (upper) and lower
pivot assemblies are available in the
buy
section of our website, or you can
have your dealer order them from Ibis
for you. Replacement is super simple
and requires these common tools:
• 2x 4mm Allen wrenches
• 2x 6mm Allen wrenches
• 2x 5mm Allen wrenches
• Loctite 242 blue thread locker or
anti–seize (depending on model of
bike)
Linkages
The upper and lower links for the HD
are more robust versions of the ones
used on the original Mojo and Mojo SL.
Please don’t try to mix and match them.
It looks like they might fit but they are not
interchangeable. Removal and instal-
lation procedures are identical. Please
refer to the section on Mojo SL and Mojo
Carbon link maintenance in this manual
(PP 38–39.)
Bearing Replacement:
If you’re handy with a bench vice and
have a good supply of sockets, you can
attempt the replacement of the bearings
in the Lopes Link and lower link yourself.
While we don’t have step–by–step in-
structions, you are welcome to purchase
the bearings and try it yourself. New
links with bearings installed are avail-
able in the Ibis webstore as well. The
current version of the Mojo SL lower link
has been extensively redesigned and
provides a 100% increase in torsional
stiffness along with a 7.5% increase in
lateral stiffness. You may want to con-
sider this upgrade rather than replacing
your bearings.
