Iwan Kemp Posted February 10, 2015 Share realistically how many different mules are there or would there normally be......is all the 'R&D' just PR once the frame has been designed on a computer and then welded up? *disclaimer: not trolling, just curious.Generally speaking that will greatly depend on budget and scale of the task at hand. For most, if not all manufacturers, computers can do quite a bit these days. oops, your seat tube gusset just fell off..... That's a different size to the one in my pics I guess I would alone in thinking these momsen's are not terribly attractive to look at. MsMaking that down tube less of a "s" would bump it up a notch in the aesthetics departmentsVery personal as with all things. Reaction of the people who have asked about it on the trails or who I know and have seen it has been good all round. http://scontent-a.cdninstagram.com/hphotos-xfa1/t51.2885-15/e15/10865222_706670126106770_1509825381_n.jpg Bottle mount is useless where it is.With that shock, yes.

hansolo Posted February 10, 2015 Share Running a 120-140 mm fork would suggest 100-120 mm rear travel? Should be a nice bike if the price is right.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
