New Frame.

I am thinking of getting a gu typhoon but i dont know anybody who rides one to have a go. Whats the geo like? But i'm open for suggestions for frames thought better. I ride a 05 python long but im only 5.3ft and i find it hard to fling about. So probably looking for a shorter frame but not as short as a monty.

thanks :)

Sounds like the Gu would be pretty good for you! That's what I'm going for. I haven't tried one personally cause there is no one I have seen in my area that has one. There are a few people on here who have Gu's on here. Seek them out.

Good lol, i love the look of them and it would look awesome with all black parts. I'll probably end up buying one on here if i am accepted into the tf :P

Size shouldn't matter too much. I find i can pull any move on any of my bikes but some i do find it alot easier. Just about getting used to it. You need to find the balance of advantages and disavantages with different frames to suit your style. As for an obvious example, a longer frame will give you that more reach allowing easier dives to front but will give you touble on the fliky moves as you said.

So if say i wanted to be able to pull off more techy moves then go for a short? But if i wanted to go for more power moves then go for a long? :) thanks for the help

The Gu comes in only one size so if you want one of those your stuck. But you should be fine with one.
