It's longer, a bit slacker, lower. Glory 0 comes with great components.
I've ordered mine for Jan/Feb Smile

PS. AFAIK, BB is not press-fit

Because certain parts of the frame are always in the same spot/location no matter the size, like i.e. head tube (because you use same for for S and L size); where the shock is, BB position, axles above the ground.
So, if you shorten the distance from the shock to the head tube, the angle of the TT changes.
You could change the shape of the TT, bend it downwards even more, but I don't think it would look any good.
However, the ST angle is odd on size S, indeed.
As far as I know, you often have to make ST more vertical, to accommodate rear wheel when fully squished... slacker ST says the opposite...?!

Does anyone know anything about the two shock positions by the BB?

Any ride reports or interesting observations of the new frame, Glory 275 owners? Geometry numbers look pretty dialled and the frame only price is crazy cheap. If it rides anything like my 275 Reign then I want it!

The difference between Reign 2015 and previous gen is night and day.
New Glory is just slightly better than 2013-2014. If you have money for Glory 0, it's worth to get one Smile

Just arrived straight from the store.

Mine just arrived last night. Potato pic of it, bone stock. I can't even sit on it the seat post is so long. Planning on just setting it up as is (except for that god awful saddle) and running it pretty much stock for as long as I can. All these upgrades are too expensive for me these days to keep up with Razz
