Hmmm,....probably about my size :-) How long is the ETT? Crank length? Any idea who the original rider was? Interesting that they left the binder bolt at the seat cluster as well as adding one to the Freuler extension. Did they cut any sort of bog bone shaped slot to allow the seat cluster binder to be effective?
