What Position Do You Run Your Adjustable Geometry In?

If your bike has a flip chip or other geometry adjustments, let us know where it's sitting. If you regularly use it in several modes, check them both. For simplicity's sake we're referring to the headtube angle when we say "slack" or "steep" modes.

Slack mode
Somewhere between slack and neutral
Neutral mode
Somewhere between neutral and steep
Steep mode
Short chainstay mode (if available)
Long chainstay mode (if available)
I have no idea

I recently changed to the steep angle on my Pivot Switchblade. Reviews of the bike said that the geometry can easily be changed trailside. Firstly it is a fiddly pain in the butt job that you would not want to do trailside and get dirt in this area. Secondly the retaining bolt needs to be torqued to 35Nm. How do you do that trail side? Thirdly the change from steep to slack doesn’t make a blind bit of difference to the average rider / consumer. Waste of time and effort.
