the 27.5 appeals very much to putting in fatter taller tires.
What tires are you thinking of using predominantly?
it's a great bike, would be my choice probably after my troll.
i get going with regular dropouts, but I'm sure removing the extra brace from seat tube to toptube would be simply saving money and time to make a frame.

PS, I also think it's a real shame they dropped the double and went trendy (CHEAPER!) 1x

I'm cynical but this change to me is going with trends but with a side order of profit.
