What's with that rear brake line?

Something like that would annoy the hell out of me

The frame kind of looks like the old looptail bmx bikes.

BTW never get rid of that flite saddle, you'll likely regret it since they don't make the flite in that version anymore.

Boy, your not kidding...when those first came out....I mean like the first day they were available through the supplier, I got one, and rode the leather right off of it. I had them for years after, until I stopped riding and then trying to find another one was like finding Jimmy Hoffa. Love that thing!!!! As for the old looptail bmx bikes.....got no idea what your talking about there...I never rode bmx, but I'll google it cuz now I'm curious. I took it on it's maiden voyage today...wow, so much nicer than my old Trek, even after I upgraded all the components.

I just saw those frame on Performance. Pretty snazzy I think. I like the HT junction a lot.

Here's the trail setup.





With the offets post and short stem, I'm riding a little further back than the designers intended methinks. But it suits me as descending doesn't come as naturally to me as technical climbs.
