Ya I gotta play around with adjustments and maybe lower my boxxer a bit. Once I'm on the bike the sag brings it down to a reasonable level, but I def want to try to get it a bit lower. Might also look high cause I am running a 36 chainring with matching bashguard.

Never, and I mean NEVER, try and pedal that up an incline.

When I tried to on a Recoil with a Boxxer I nearly flipped over backwards. Felt incredibly wierd (worse than an M1 uphill).
Generally a good frame though!

It's not that high, it's just an optical illusion cos the chainstay runs straight between the pivots, instead of running parallel to the ground then attaching to a yoke near the BB that goes up to the pivot (a la Specialized, Norco etc).
