how long are those cranks?
At that size I figure 180mm~190mm would be suitable.

A bit old, yes.
I wonder if his weight will be too far back - - will he tip back over the rear wheel on hills?

Can we put a filter on the site not allowing that picture to start a thread again? Same with the "really cool ZOMG!!!" (CGI) video of the biker running away from the cops.

Making a kilometer blurry
It always bugged me that someone spec'd 36h rims for that guy. I'd be surprised if they'd survive half a season of real trail riding.

Who knows, maybe the Socialist government in Canada blocked it from you. That and the fact that it was EVERYWHERE for 6 months when it first hit the intarweb. Of course, judging by some of the mullets I've seen on Canadians, it must still be 1989 up there.

There's a picture out there on the web somewhere showing Yao Ming riding this thing. Apparently, he loves it.

Bike ≠ Car ≠ Ped.
Sweet! I hoped that I'd sneak in a "flip it" before anyone else this time (especially after someone made a comment like that about my bike.. lol).
You're right; that saddle is almost right over the rear axle. I didn't even notice that before (that is, back when I knew even less about bike geometry).
