Any problem solvers for this low BB and clipping pedals on rocks etc ? Great fun handling bike just too low imo. Oh and no I'm not going to buy new 5mm shorter cranks as that won't help

Yes! I just got my Mojo 3, previously had THE old skool Mojo. I just thought that the older bike isn't as low slung as the modern geometry new bikes. Any new bikes (generally speaking). It's now getting much less - more of aware of pedal timing, ratchetting etc

Sure is low and suppose means I must improve pedal timing technique :-)

Since posting this topic, I have found that I am positioning and timing of cranks at much better angles, read level on flat undulating dips and pumping through then obvs crank arm down on outer corner.

I also have 175mm cranks and 140mm forks as per standard spec but that I've yet to see what ground clearance is like once using all rear 130mm travel but let's face it cranks shouldn't hit ground if I land level as everyone knows to ;-d
