Maybe its super fun to ride ? sometimes I think all these numbers are not as reflective as we think, been riding my 21 Rootdown for at least a couple months exclusively and its a riot but took my first generation Switchback out today for the same kind of riding and it was a f*cking hoot as well and quite a bit more flickable than the Rootdown...

Yep. They’re each fun in their own ways.

the geo isn't slacker as a stanton switch9er. the eTT is a bit shorter than on other bikes, plus the slack seat tube makes a rsther short reach. i think it's a nice allround geo that doesn't need 40% sag. just cant see how the bike lengthens by 30 mm into the sag, that seems a bit much...

If it fits Tom, that’s all that really matters, it’s not for me, coming up short for my body/sizing

I’d love to go full custom geometry

Cable at the mech needs cutting, cable tie around all the cables is lazy. Seat needs to be set on fire.. actually just set the whole thing on fire

Shame on them for that photo. The fademag is awesome, but you can barely tell.
