nice - how tall are you? that thing looks ginormous
its a large frame and I'm about 6'. feels a little odd in the standover (read: not much) but it rides perfect. lowering the fork to about 100mm of travel will result in perfection in standover.

...most fun you can have with clothes on!

its definitely big- standover is maybe an inch...in the morning when I'm taller, but it fits just right. I initially thought that the 120mm fork would be too much, but it seems right on for local conditions, and without a wheelie issue.

Ti is perfect. got to love it.

me thinks I will be investing in the 22t cog as well. I might enjoy more riding out at Dallas and Shellburg/Silver Creek Falls with that combo.

Cheers!

What? Only twin ti? You don't really love that bike.
im to much of a fat arse to use the triple ti's. I havent seen 185 since the end of college, 5 years ago.

besides, crank bros doesnt reccomend the ti spindles for any SS type activity- too much force!
