This is probably my most favorite bike to ride...frame rides great...goes where I want it...simple and fuking fun

I rode this rigid w/ the Surly front fork for about a month, getting decent trail rides in almost daily...I still have the clicking in my shoulder

its weird, but the instant I saw this picture, the stem and seatpost look so much longer/taller than in person. Maybe its the angle I took it at.

The bike rides great and fit has never been an issue. I'm 6'2 and usually ride a large or 19" mountain bike. Most of my height is in my legs and I've always been able to get away with rounding down instead of up on the size of my bike, that might change with some recent injuries affecting my flexibility, but fit has never been an issue.

This bike is the most fun to ride of all the bikes I've owned or spent any amount of time on. I've ridden some whippy steel and some dead steel, this frame is a perfect balance of stiffness and flex AND probably the cheapest I've ever ridden.
