strange they didn't go to a 150mm rear end. How many bikes have standard 135mm rear ends? not many. last bike i rode w/ that was a GT Lobo. I was hoping they would bump the shock up to a 9.5x3 as well.
And why I wonder? If a proper chain line can be gotten with 135, then what is the point of a 150 rear other than wheel dish. or vice-versa what is the point of a 135?
