The way he turns the bars about before measuring them (and pointing out that it wasnt a scientific test) seemed pointless. I decided to have a look at the real wheelbase lengths on these two bikes. The guy measures both and comes up with his take on it.. (13 minutes in)

"So thats about <small chuckle from the guy> two and a half centimeters shorter than the anthem x"

Check out the scientific measurements.. it turns out theres only 1mm difference between them!

Yes, i`m bored ;O)

Sorry, I can't be bothered to watch the video, but are you posting it because someone managed to accurately measure something? You do know there are naked women on the internet?

Do you go to porn sites and let all the folk know that theres bike websites out there too?

Sober up and come back if you want to talk bikes. If not, do one ;O)

I'm rather taken by the little, alt-bar'd trike that's hung up behind him in the first bit of the video ...

(My new 29er has a 1105mm wheelbase, just in case anyone is counting).

I usually drive a LWB Land Rover, so I'm used to planning my turns well in advance.
