I'll start a new thread with more pictures, pricing info, etc. once I get everything organized.
Just wanted to give a sneak peek.
I got one a couple of months ago for my 20. Same hub with 10t. It was a bit jumpy the first week or so I rode it but now I like it quite a bit. I mostly like having 30-10 gearing though. Alas, tis no profile...Cru, let me know how you like that g-sport hub! I am considering it as a replacement.
The reason I am looking at the g-sport is that the driver rolls on needles bearings instead of cartridge (spherical) bearings. Supposedly this gives better load dispersion. I've been having issues w/ my current driver toasting bearings (and the axle isn't bent).I got one a couple of months ago for my 20. Same hub with 10t.

how soon do you anticipate selling out... I think I'll definitely be interested after the holidays (or during depending on how much loot I end up with)
They probably won't sell out that quick... we have a decent amount of them. Don't want to say exactly how many, because it's less than what the minimum order is supposed to be from that factory.cool. how big of a batch was this first run?
Thanks for considering the frame. I have put a lot of thought into different bar sizes. I think the 6" bars make it feel the most like a 20" with 8" bars. The vertical distance between the bb and the grip area is actually a little more on our frame with 6" bars, than on a 20" with 8" bars. You're right about the Model C using taller bars because of the higher bb. The cockpit size on that frame/bar combo would probably feel similar to ours.Cru, I'm seriously thinking about listening to my financially irresponsible side and snagging one of these. You seem like a rider who knows what's up, so I'm pretty confident that it will ride awesome. Question though: how does the cockpit feel compared to a 20? I ride 8" rise, 28" width bars on my 20, and was wondering if your frame and bar combo would give a similar feel. Obviously, all set ups are different, but it seems like every cruiser I've been on has handlebars that just feel "too low." I'd prob choose between your bars or the Sunday bars (which I believe are an inch taller), but I know it's because of the Model C's higher BB. Just curious.
Oh, and on a side note: Any plans for a disc version on a future production run??
Hey, Jon! Looks like you had a blast. Saw your pics... you were stylin! I'll be gone for about a week for the holidays, but we should definitely meet up and ride sometime soon after that.The plum looks awesome! Missed you at woodward this weekend. Had a blast!
Nice. Did you get the hub in white? I think you'll have the first blue one built up... can't wait to see it.my crotch is sopping wet. i just ordered my front wheel, rhynolite xl to a demolition mary kate. 20% off at dans too
Thanks, Greg! It should be pointed out that you made a progressive geo cruiser frame well before this project. Your "Daily Driver" frame was definitely an inspiration for our frame. Thanks again for the kind words and the order for the bars.... they shipped out today.I just ordered 2 sets of bars
Congratulations to Jeremy for bringing this project to fruition!
Awesome geo at an amazing price! For only 309.00, everyone should buy 2.
Greg
Depends on how well they sell and what our financial situation looks like when we're ready to order more... but hopefully not.Is this gonna be just one run production?
