[Closed] Anyone riding a Parkwood rigid? And tall rider Parkwood sizing question

Following on from [url= http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/does-this-exist-hardtail-thatll-take-fatish-wheels-and-normal-ones ]this thread[/url], in many ways a Parkwood would suit what I want to do but I'm not sure how well it'd work with a rigid fork which I'd want for at least part of its use as it's going to be a winter bike ridden in crap conditions.

I can't really find any mention of people using them rigid though.

Also, The Parkwood large is 'only' 20" but the ETT length is seemingly alright (I'd usually ride an XL on-one) for me if just a touch short. It also has a relatively slack seat angle at 72" which would help but I don't want to be too far over the rear. Obviously seat tube length isn't an issue in itself but I'd be interested to see how any tall (6'5" or so) riders are setting them up.

TIA
