I'm sorry you're having issues, but confident CRC can sort you out.

got a blue pig - not weighed it..
suspect it's quite a lot though. currently got pike 426's, dual ply tyres, and other such hefty things on there..but then I do get about half my ascents done by ski lift though.. do rather like it.
Works well as an Alps hardtail, Guy? Thinking about getting one for big pedally days (Orange Alpine rest of the time!).
Need to hassle Brant again...

found some Fire eye bars on CRC with a nice 77mm rise!!-gonna give em a try I think, allthough I can hear Brant crying into his Yorkshire puddings as I speak with thoughts of a 'Pig being pedalled around looking like something from Easy Rider.

Ragley clamp sorted it for me too..
Rustynissanprairie,whats you're idea with this high front end malarky?

I noticed a sign outside the bluepig today that said in association with mankin holes WWC' (spelling?)
Brant maybe you could name a femme-specific frame after this?

Rustynissanprairie,whats you're idea with this high front end malarky?
Im a lanky 6'5" er with long legs, I prefer high front ends even if it is against the general thought that low is best, my previous hardtails have always had long head tubes, big forks&2" rise bars, I tend to ride off the back with a light front end for manual rolling or clean 'bunny' hopping entire rock fields/sections at speed-it comes from years of street&race bmx and big DH bikes.
Cornering was never a problem with my old hardtails, Im a kinda bmx elbows out tucked down corner-er or sometimes stick my foot out and drift it in kinda style which isnt hampered by a high front end.The trouble is that the new generation of hardtails have lower front ends for better cornering&climbing, my 20" 'pig has a higher BB and lower front end than my previous stuff, so I feel rotated forwards over the front. Its a great bike for 'hard XC'/riding but im not getting the love for DH stuff. I've gone 20mm shorter on the stem to 50mm. 20mm (IIRC) spacers under the stem and 2"rise bars. Im thinking a higher bar will put me back to where I was-ish.
