Rusevelt Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 My thoughts exactly Scott. Same geometry as Inspired Hex or different? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEON Posted June 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 Lower bb, Hex always felt way too high for me. 1035, 74, 380, +5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusevelt Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 As well as a shorter WB, steeper HA, and shorter CS. You're certainly ahead of the curve geo wise with this beaut. Move over Inspired Hex, hello Marino Sex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could really use some  Nice! I'm after a stem myself, need a Trialtech 90 x 25 ideally. I don't like high stems on a 26". I do have Pashley forks with a questionable disc mount welded on, but they're only 395mm which will throw your geo off.  1 hour ago, Dman said: Looks nice always wanted to try a 26, have to be rear disc though. Cheers (unless that was for Herbert!) I definitely don't want a disc on it though, it's nice and quiet but it'll never have the hold of a hs33, I used to love a big gap drop to rail but I never really want to with a disc brake. Now I can relive it all. Plus a big rotor on a 24" still slips now and then for me, on a bigger wheel it takes even more to stop it. 1 hour ago, Ross McArthur said: Does this one have a name? Na, I only really built it up so I could laugh at 26" wheels and call it names, but I actually really like it, better for the trialsy stuff, especially static gaps. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
