I know geometry changes over time. But these numbers can't be right. I'm on a 2015 Wilson 27.5. I love the bike, but my buddy's YT felt how I generally like my bikes. A lil more reach and a lil less stack compared to my Wilson. Now, that was 2 years ago when I was on his YT. I took a screen shot of the geometry of the Wilson back then so I had something to compare to. Today I'm on YT's site to look at the geometry. Here's the difference. That can't be right... Right?

2020 Devinci Wilson 29
445mm (R) X 615mm (S)

Vs

2022 YT Tuse 27.5
605mm (R) X 400mm (S)

They accidentally flipped the reach and stack numbers, or something like that

 

[ebarker9]

Move all of those numbers down by one category and start with 606mm top tube length.

105mm wheelbase...

 

[Electric_City]

Nevermind, I guess that YT fucked up their page as a 105mm wheelbase is impossible

 

[canadmos]

Is their mobile page or your phone caching something wrong?

I don't see that on their site - both the US and global one.

 

[Electric_City]

It's under the 27.5 one

While we're at it, who else still makes 27.5 specific DH bikes?

 

[Loki87]

Banshee and Unno still seem to offer 27.5

 

[jonKranked]

i like the 63.5° chainstay

I can see Intense measuring chainstays at 63.5º but surely most other manufacturers just measure the length....

Nah.
Remove the top tube from the table but
move each measurement down one row but flipping reach & stack numbers gives you the correct geo.

@Electric_City The numbers you are trying to compare should be 429 reach and 606 stack.

I like the 73.5 HTA

that 1220mm BB drop just inadvertently leaked the new 100" wheels

 

[Westy]

Reach values larger than TT are all the rage.

 

[Gary]

neat idea to limit derrailleur strikes though

 

[StiHacka]

Looks flexy

The bike or rider?

 

[HardtailHack]

I like the 73.5 HTA

Accidentally listed the HA number from the Ritchey site.

Pondering how long one could actually ride that abomination.

I am pondering the tandem version

I guess if we're going to be pedantic...the US site has 429 reach and 605 stack. 606 is what they list for the top tube. What I said was accurate

oh oh i saw a recumbent trike tandem on Saturday

I was thinking of more of something like a reverse cowgirl tandem.

 

[StiHacka]

I was thinking of more of something like a reverse cowgirl tandem.

I can see the appeal.

How about this flying dutchman model? All you need is a missionary harness.

i thought we were talking about weird bikes. oops.

Plowy bikes are coming back I guess.
