I'm looking at this one too.
What size did you get and how tall are you? I'm 5'9" with T-Rex arms, and am between the 16" and 18". How is the reach and what do you think of the long stem?
Thanks
Sandwich it felt really good before and now with a little more fork travel and larger stanchions look out. What I should have said was " feels even more like an all mountain bike now
J-Dubs I am 6' and have a 32-33" inseam. I am riding an 18" frame. 2012 model I used the stock stem flipped down and on 2013 I flipped it up. No problem with the reach either way for me.
With the shoes and pedals I'm running and my leg extension the seat post has about 7/8ths of an inch before before it bottoms out on the seat clamp. If you right click and hit view on the above pic you'll see what I mean.
Thank you. I rode the 2012 in 18" yesterday. It felt great and I had 8.5" of seatpost at full extension. That should be plenty of room. I have longer legs than toso, so even though the 90mm stem felt ok, I'll throw a 70 on there for good measure. Looking forward to the availability of the 2013.
