Looks good.

Mattty talked about bars and rigids, but mentions it's a different process where you need a tapered tube for a fork, and bars are a different machine and material I think.

Been considering with going ahead with the V2 frame recently, going to make it similar to Capital geo.

I thought of this ( main being a thought lol ) But while at work I was thinkin of taking the cap geo and tweaking it . The 24 geo is soo sweat and if the seat stay and bb was up more a 26 could fit . Then offset the seat tube on the BB like how they do it on a fly terria . Up the TT like an inch .I would leave the HA the same and raise the BB up just enough so I could run a 22t with pegs on both sides Big Grin

I was thinking of getting a 26" Cap, as I loved the way my old 24" rode. My current Stout is probably more of an all round geo right now, so I want to create something more street. The current Caps are designed around a rigid really, so once a sus fork goes on the BB gets jacked up real high.
I'm thinking of a Cap frame but based around a 435-445mm sus fork. 72 HA, 76 SA, +15 BB, 22" TT and slammed CS.

check out the tubagra geo's they may be what you are looking for. the spec on the 26 is really nice. Very similar to what you want .

Yeah Tubagra are sick! Though they are expensive and don't seem that easy to get hold of. I use the geo of the kdMOZU for inspiration for my current Stout. The geo is similar though again that frame is designed around a 420mm with a 71 HA, and I want to run sus so it'll be too slack then.

Tubagra is a custom builder also so some of the bikes posted on the sight have some sick geos. just hard to read the blogs being all in Japanese lol
