[#8144846]

I'm looking to get a new frame to replace my pitch pro.
Loved this bike but with my seemingly weird to long legs I have to hike the dropper post out to as far as the post will go to get proper riding positon which means when dropping to descend I still have too much post. Does anyone else have this problem. The rest of the frame size is spot on so at just over 6ft don't think an xl frame is needed.
Anyone got any suggestions for a 650b frame with internal dropper routing(for longer stealth post) at 150mm/150mm rear travel that might fit my requirements?

Yes, I use a 150mm post & it's still not quite enough for my tastes.

My frame is low enough I could easily get away with a 170mm Reverb, but then I would have to use a Reverb & the wobbly button again.

I don't quote have the space for one of the 200mm droppers sadly.

How about an new Liteville 301 with the integrated dropper. L = 200mm drop

I do love liteville frames though a little out of my price range I fear! I'd not seen that new one either. Mmm

A few Stumpjumpers on the Bikescene site. good deals on a great frame if they have the right size
