check out the 18" BB drop. Dang this bike sounds awesome. Its the new wave of DH geometry.

Oh and 4" chainstay!!! Heck yeah, maybe I'll finally be able to manual!

So i hear that some people have been having problems fitting their wheels in the 4in. chainstay. Can anyone substantiate this?
It isn't a problem. Rocky worked with DW to create a "Virtaul Bottom Bracket" (VBB) design that allows for a very clever crank arm placement. The only flaw is how it displaces the ST, thus the longer-than-oridinary measurement in that aspect of the geo.
