Lucky guy…

Can’t find a 19″ frame or complete anywhere, guess I’ll give up

Thanks, but I’m not interested on the full bike, too much an hassle to sell all the build kit…
But thanks for the tip, I’ll speak with them

Any chance to find a 2015 size 19 frame in stock anywhere??

What kind of clearance do the MK2s have in the back?
I mean, would a Chronicle or Knard on a Flow EX fit?
Thanks

Thanks for all the answers

I think I should be fine with the Taiwan ones then

About the Fabric, aren’t they the same as the old Scoops?
Which one is comparable to the Spoon?
Thanks

If yours was a 19″ I would try to buy it right away

Here’s a funny pic from MTBR of the supposedely semifat Trailblazer next to a Vittoria Goma 29×2.4:

The author found that the WTB was only 1mm wider than the Goma.
So much for the “increased volume” of B+…

I’m still trying to figure out what the hell went through their heads on this.

The funniest thing of all, I believe, is this paragrafh on the 2015 Longitude (still on the website):
“
Up front you’ll find our non-suspension corrected 445mm axle-crown fork with 50mm offset. Why non-suspension corrected? Primarily so we can design the frame/fork as a whole, complete package and not be dictated to in terms of fork offset, axle-crown height. There are other bonuses too – a lower axle-crown height means less leverage so we can use Ø28.6mm tapered fork blades instead of Ø31.8mm. The end result is a lighter, more forgiving and ultimately better riding fork that is still plenty strong.
“

And then we see the new forks……

Up until now, I really liked Genesis. Great ideas, all the models seemed well putted together. I almost bought a Genesis twice (only to then buy a Surly).
I knew something was wrong when they dropped the Fortitude Adventure…

I ended up buying a Surly Ogre frameset and was wondering if I shouldn’t have waited for the 2016 batch Longitudes. With this new information I feel like I did the right move.

Hello to all,

I currently have a 700c Surly LHT which I love, except that it wont handle tires bigger than 47 or 48mm wide.
The Longitude seems to be a great frameset for what I need, a commuter, tourer and ocasional mountain bike.

A couple of questions:
– how is the frame when loaded with racks and panniers? I commute with a reasonable load, so that’s really important for me;
– how about mounting mudguards? Up front seems to be ok, but in the back I fail to see chainstay bridges.

Thanks in advance

I really like to deal with Charlie. How are the prices?

Thanks, I’ll contact those sellers
