"some aspect of the display, showing off some world cup dirt, or was the mech just too busy chasing booth girls to be bothered with it?"BBLB
Seriously...chasing girls...at Interbike? Since Philly Inter has always been nothing more than a pool cue collection, but maybe things changed this year
Wrong... that bike belongs to Aaron Gwin, therefore the seat height and angle are Pro and perfectly acceptable.
The real question though... why did no one bother to wash Minaar's bike? Was that some aspect of the display, showing off some world cup dirt, or was the mech just too busy chasing booth girls to be bothered with it?
It seems to be common place to leave the World Champ winning bikes as are post race - last year the XC champs bikes was like this and Scott had Kabush's bike all dirty from the last race too.
If you look at the stanchions there is a black mark on the front of each which look like markings for how low you can safely put the lower crown. Measuring from them looks to be about 8 inches still, he's just running his crown super high lol
