Nice. You aren't

Maybe it's because it's your size? Maybe you have to be nearly 2 metres tall and Canadian to understand?

That's good enough for me anyway.

bombusben, Is that a conversion of an MX Leader or a Eddy Pista frame?

I have an MX leader road bike in the Motorolla colors too, from '96 but my fork is different. Can't tell about the dropouts from that picture...
