Short cranks and Ebikes. Pretty soon they'll just be pegs and a motor.

Review: The 2023 Yeti SB120 is a Comfortable Trail Cruiser
@KJP1230: Understood.. but really.. How much are you really worried about anti squat or anti rise if your plowing into the remaining 30% of travel.? Hell a little pedal kickpack may help from completely bottoming out everything...

Review: The 2023 Yeti SB120 is a Comfortable Trail Cruiser
@KJP1230: These are things that Yeti will not say, but when I service one last I left the shork off and cycled it thru its travel. It was VERY VERY little and no doubt negligible on the trail.

Review: The 2023 Yeti SB120 is a Comfortable Trail Cruiser
The Switch Infinity is a hard sell at this travel and less. Yeti should take a play from Specialized and ditch it on short travel like they did with the Horst link. It just doesn't actually do enough with minimal wheel travel to justify the money/weight/etc.

Gotta say, the Switch Infinity gets hard to justify the complexity/more wear items when you get down to this travel. It's all-out pointless once you're below 120. It just doesn't do enough to merit the $$ and weight.

Review: 2023 Yeti SB160 - The Revised Racer
The dude shortens the bike up by putting a shorter stem on it, higher and narrower bars, and moving the seat forward. Then lists sitting up to high on the bike as a negative.... OK .

@Jlink11: Wouldn't really help with the whole "sitting on top of the bike " going to a size down.
