The Last Celo and Last Asco use the same essential frame but with different suspension and build kits.

I'll have the Asco in green but with those fancy carbon wheels. From someone who had spin wheels, they've got three too many spokes though but I'm sure I'd get over that.
I'm strangely drawn to the one with the Skyway Tuff wheels!
🤔👌
I love those wheels...
They feel a little short of wheelbase? I mean, you can size up but 470mm reach and 1214mm wheelbase, that's as much reach as I'd want generally but not as overall long as I like. Course it might not feel that way in the flesh.
Pretty curious if it has the old Last suspension feel- my Herb was awesome but also weird, it was so smooth off the top of the travel that it felt like it had a flat, never ridden anything else like it. It'd make for a pretty blobby pedalling trailbike but the way it moved over chattery roots and such was just so damn good.
Me likey. The Celos is very similar to my Spur but with frame storage, which would be nice to have. Geometry looks good to me, again, very close to the Spur, the Asco is a touch slacker, don't see why you'd want it longer for a trail bike?
These look very nice. Not sure my wallet agrees though. They have long reach numbers
don’t see why you’d want it longer for a trail bike?
The slight wheelbase increase?
Its the same frame, with altered suspension (and linkage maybe?).
Wheelbase will increase and reach decrease slightly on the longer travel trail bike.
EDIT - you were possibly making comparisons to the spur and or replying to Northwind, in which case ignore me.
