My first impression looking at that thing is that the bottom bracket is crazy high for a 26". Are there any other 26" bikes with that height bb? If so, would the thing even be rideable?
that website looks like it has the wrong picture for the description. this pic (drawing?) looks like 24"s to me. not listed on the Mongoose website.... would be kinda weak IMO if they call this Model-C copy the 'new Kos' ....
Sure looks like 24s to me.... look at the gap between the tire and the chainring... if that was a 26" wheel, the chainstay would be about 17" long, and with that amount of rise, probably 14+" high.
Just imported the pic into a CAD program, if I scale it so that the TT is 21" center to center, the outer diameter of the tire is 24.5". The BB looks to be 13.99" high.
Now, THAT is a proper 26" bmx.
Would be great if more companies did this.
After riding bmx from MTB I can't get back on an MTB. It feels all wrong somehow!
