Don`t listen to these clowns. I have a large Persona set up as single speed with front and back brakes and use it for commuting and excercise since my 26" DJ is not really ideal for that. It is kind of big (Standover around 24") and the top tube is a little short for a commuter (About 22.25")...
One thing. I don`t know you or how fast you are but.... If you race cruiser remember there are no rookie classes like there are in 20" racing. That means the cruiser guys are FAAAAAST.
If want a Liquid then buy a Liquid. Sell what you have to help pay for new parts. The Sun wheels will take that freewheel as long as they have flip flop hubs. But they only come in 3/8" axles I`m pretty sure so you have to use adapters to fit 14mm dropouts. Not a big deal.
It looks like you are trying to please too many people with that design. V brakes AND disc brakes? ISG mounts? 24 AND 26"? SS AND derrailleur? Look at all those cable guides on it also.
Bad Ass to be sure. But I think its funny that the guy towing them in has a full face on while the riders have the usual brain bucket with the strap hanging down.
Personally, I loved that RIDE article and the photos. I`ve ridden BMX since I was 12 (I`m 44 now). But now ride a 26 Union Street WCH and love it. I do not however consider it a mountain bike by any means. I think there is a difference between what I ride and a multi speed tall frame mountain...
Yeah, it looks ok. I think they should take an inch out of the back end and add it to the front. And as far as a 30 tooth front gear looking like a frisbee? Thats just funny but I guess being an old guy I would think that.
I`ve only seen two other WCH`s and I know there are more out there since mine is number seven. Lets see them. And I`ll get some action photos just as soon as it sees some real action...
I talked to them about a custom fork before I bought the NS and they told me they had one in the works and it should be out this summer. I`m thinking they might release it under they`re name or maybe under Black Market but don`t know any more other than they should really nice.
