How does it feel?

Words. cannot. describe. I've never hopped so high, with so little effort. Its kray. i'm off work tomorrow so i will get a full day of riding in.

Keep in mind you are standing way furthur off the ground to begin with, so are you really clearing more with your tires or is your body just futher in the air?



Tires are coming a ton higher. Like a full foot.

Have you hopped it with any speed yet? I bet it is a little sketchy with a super short rear, high bb and front end.

If that shit's true I am ordering this frame lol

I can hop just over a foot now, so by purchasing this frame I can double my hop height...

Shit, I'd order this frame too, fully stick it to Gabe Brooks with some 53" hops.

My hops use to max out just above wheel height. I'm flyin up stuff now. That silly low Silly low seat tube allows me to suck the rear wheel up extremely high, and the short rear end helps heaps in the process by tucking the wheel in, and keeping it close and controlled. The high bb also helps to really pop up off the rear wheel, and further accentuates the hoping height by levelling out the bike in the air, unlike how on my street sweeper I would tend to suck in the rear wheel extra to compensate for the lower BB and nosedive a bit on my highest hops

Sweet. How much can Matty make me one for?

Should get him to produce it as his first house frame, and get your initails on it.
