I don’t know, clearly brant is the man to ask, however it manuals like no bike ive ever ridden so I presume the short stays have sOmething to do with that.
Im no expert but I do think shedfire whether it be for on one or ragley or whoever understand something about geo that other designers do not .
Pig mmbop, troof (summer season correct me if I’m wrong but br/shedfire are behind that too) all have something different about them and they all ride amazIngly particuarly dh.
For me the fact you can get such a low slung heavy hitting long tt and slack ha Frame that weighs under 29ln fully kitted with dropper and burley build is amazing.
I first saw this frame on google after following the blue pig.
As soon as i saw it I thought wow can’t wait till they are released then I saw the price £350 for an alli Frame, steep ? I thought so. I waited and waited for a price reduction but it didnt happen so I took the plunge I thought of the bfe, soul, bagger and hx1 but the troof just looked like my kinda bike so I hit the button
At first the seat angle seems odd but it begs to be used with a dropper post, I have done no serious clImbing on it yet
but I can tell it will be fine.
The great thing for me is when the post is dropped the bike is super low which is obviuosley a good thing
Only time will tell but I suspect this bike to be the finest ht I have owned/ridden
