[#11052415]

I've just finished building this up, new frame and groupset (so pretty much a new bike).

Really looking forward to getting out on this, I had a straggler a few years ago and have wanted another ever since selling it.

Looks great fun!

I’ve just built up my inbred 29er as a monstercross/ drop bar 29er and it rides wayyyy better than I thought it would. I’m won’t be doing any red/ black runs but for a blast round the roads/ fire roads/ single track it is great.

How big is that frame?! Or how tall are you and how (too) small is the frame. It's probly the pic angle but it looks like there's a lot of mixed/funny angles going on; seat, top tube and bars? Like the nod to the 1980`s front hub. Enjoy 😉

It's a 60cm frame I'm around 6'3".
Yeah I don't think the angle of the picture is doing it any favours it looks relatively normal in person. The steerer is quite long as I've not decided where exactly I want my stem yet and the bars could do with being rotated forward a little.
