Following on from my Pace RC506 question has led me to this as a possible option.

Brant, what's the clearance like between the granny and the chainstay?

Have you got one? Wondering how it would be with Mazocchi 44's 150mm 1 1/8" steerer and what the best headset option would be. Slackset etc. I'm completely out of touch with current headset options!

Warranty? 2 Years?

No actually advice from me, but I guess you've seen these vid's from the bearded one?

Got one, liking it. Totems at 160mm, straight thru headset but thinking of upping them to 170.

150 would be a bit short IMO, slackset would sort the handling, but it's more the BB height, which is pretty low - feels similar to my socom. A good thing DH, but can be a hassle on climbs.

I've never noticed, but seems splendid.
