it's like the small one on my troll near the seat tube, but on steroids, and at the front.
That’s a ‘95 Killer V 500, obviously with no suspension like the Super Vs. From what I read, the cutaway gives you better crotch clearance, especially on downhills. Plus it’s just way stronger than most frames, which is why it’s good for touring. 👍
