Devinci Wilson Carbon - First Ride
I also have rather long arms for my hight and used to really stuggle finding bikes that would fit me as getting a bike with a long enough reach would come with a seat tube that was way to high. Probably why I'm enjoying bikes getting longer and keeping a faily consistant seat tube length.

Devinci Wilson Carbon - First Ride
A lot of Pinkbike users do complain about how nothing on this site gets a bad review, if anything I thought this was refreshingly honest.
Regarding the reach, I would have thought a size large bike for a 5'9" rider would be ample, I'm fairly sure that Devinci did not intend their XL size for riders that short. As for the other bikes you have quoted: The M16C does have the same reach but was also reviewed on here as being a little on the sort size for the large, although by a rider 2" taller. The large V10 does have a shorter reach but it's not their second largest frame (they do an XL and an XXL), the XL has a reach of 446mm, 10mm longer. The trend of bikes getting longer doesn't seem to be slowing and it would make sense to future-proof a carbon bike with the expense of making moulds.

Cavalerie Anakin - Review
It's a constant mesh gear set, all the gears are connected but the gears on the lower shaft can spin freely on the shaft. The gear you select holds that one gear to the shaft so drive can be transmitted, so for 1st the gear on the far right is connected to the shaft and 9th the far left.

Oct 21, 2013Santa Cruz V10 MK2-medium-red + extras
$650 GBPFor sale is my MK2 Santa Cruz v10 in medium. The frame comes with a rear shock, rear wheel, cranks, chain device, seat/seat post and a headset ( see below for spec).
the reason for sale is I have brought another frame so will not accept another frame in p/x, however I would be interested in some fox 40's.
The frame is in fair/good condition with a few scuffs and scratches, to be expected from a DH bike. The worst is a bit of chain slap on the seat stay (see pic).
I am open to sensible offers and feel free to contact me with any trades or p/x's you have to offer. frame
Spec:
Shock - Fox DHX5
Rear wheel - Sun Ringle hub on Alexrims supra D rim (true/strait)
Headset - Chris King 1-1/8
Chain device - E13 SRS
Cranks/BB - Shimano Saint
Seat/Seat post - SDG bell air I beam
