Your Gunnar makes me weak at the knees. Do you ride it rigid or suspended most of the time?
I am probably going to sell the Reba and keep the White Brothers Magic and swap it between the two bikes.

the seat stays on those gts are so cool
|
Nice looking. Too racy for me, and once you go riser bars, you won't look back, but it does look good. Built for speed, that one.
|
the tripple tirangle is crazy. your bike looks super fast. it's nice to see GT back in the game. sweet ride!
|
how does one post a picture like that? host it then post the link? thanks in advance.

I love that exchange. My proudest BF moment. It was a few pages ago for those interested, and I do like to think that his embarassment there made him change his forum name.

Is this how the fat possum is meant to be or is it personal preference? |
While having equal travel front and rear may seem logical, but remember with the suspension properly set up the rear is supposed to have more sag than the front. With the matched travel with out the sag, then put in sag, the bike is going to feel awkward when riding. Having at least 10mm extra travel in the back with the sag will make for a much more balanced ride.
Rear: 150x.30=45 150-45=105 Front 140x.25=35 140-35=105 With sag set up, it's equal, how you had it: Rear: 150x.30=45 150-45=105 Front: 150X.25=37.5 150=37.5=112.5 Which makes for a very imbalanced ride. That 10mm difference allows the bike to ride more balanced. |
i see, so its not about the travel, its about the travel minus sag
