Fantastic frame
What a great frame! This was super easy to build up and all the cable guides came with c clips so I didn't have to mess with zip ties. I already had 27.5 wheels to use on this build and they work so well I may never replace them with 29s.
This bike is super comfortable and feels much lighter than I expected. I had the long setback seatpost and I really needed it for the Brooks saddle to get it back far enough. I feel a little slower on this bike vs. my all-road bike but it could be I need to make some gearing changes. I need to spend some more time tweaking fit but this thing is a keeper!
