I recall having this conversation with you about a year ago. It all makes perfect sense!

 

Damn, I need wider bars!

 

Yeah. Just need to find the perfect fit to try this with, but I'm super keen now. Frankenbike!

 

What width are you running at the moment?

Terry, just to be clear - that is FRAME ONLY (with shock)

 

You also get a rear Maxle and chainstay protector. That's value right there

Fook me!!! Listen to this

 

Ibis Large HDR 650b SC 5010 XL

BB height 343 334

Wheelbase 1140 1166

Standover 760 747

Reach 409 449

Stack 595 609

HT Length 118 120

ST Length 483 508

 

BB will be a score, wheelbase will be a score, standover will be a score, 45mm stem will be a score...I'm a weeeeener!

 

EDIT: On;y thing that will need careful calculation will be the seat tube length. Need to get a 125mm Stealth dropper in there.

All of this crazyness when the answer remains simple: Kona Process

You're right! A Large Process will be smack bang in the sweet spot.

It'll work.

 

I feel just ever so slightly cramped on the sukuma, don't want a longer stem or people will point, so ill move up in length from my corner cafe 711 bars to about a 740. That should stretch the arms a bit..

Let me know when, I may have 740's for you. Sukuma still going strong?

But alas, too heavy. Yes, I went there.

 

"A long top tube and tiny 40mm stem holding the 750mm bars give the Kona almost Mondraker-fast reactions and feel. It’s got an insatiable hard-cornering itch that only trying to drag its bar ends through corners will scratch."

Now the Plastic one must just be released! Won't be long as the first one was at EWS 4 already if I'm correct. Oh and I just saw this... Pyga Carbon dual released, looks like a one29 carbon though...

sukuma is cool, not riding it as often as I'd like but that's no fault other than my own.

 

Let me know how much and when you ready to part with the bars, would be good to try my theory.

Off topic but If by any chance you want to get rid of that 65mm spank oozy stem please let me know!

You're welcome to try mine before you swipe.

Edit: but it's for sale as of now. So if you like it you can keep it.
