Each to his own, but not sure what you are refering to re the geo as it's in-line with the Specialized Epic, Silverback Sesta and the likes. the nerd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A sucker for a plus bike! Like you say each to their own... I mean some people buy e-bikes :-p Edited August 7, 2016 by the nerd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mornevg Posted August 7, 2016 Share Wait till you have to warranty it. ENDLESS run-arounds. Rather buy a PYGA. Cooler brand as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryanpmb Posted August 7, 2016 Share With the nerd here. 2.8 isn't plus & definitely not fatty. Running two tyre sizes on this platform is a stretch - more fit convenience than specific design. Clearance looks marginal - to take advantage of plus tyres one should be able to run low pressures. At low pressures my guess is with normal tyre roll plus tyres will touch this frame. I would prefer to get a frame actually designed around multiple tyre sizes by a manufacturer that's been at for a lot longer than these new comers.
