:twitchy: Thats a sweet first ride bro. Looks like you got an 08 rh comp. Congrats on the bike, as for the sweet photo skilz, you may wanna stick to the trails. JK

Anyhow, wise choice on the 08 RH comp. Do you know what kinda of deal pops got at the LBS?

Seatpost needs to go up. Seriously.

I was thinking the same thing. Either the seat is too low or he is on too big of a frame.
