Funny thing is.......... not many years ago....... (maybe 10ish) slack angled frames where the domain of world cup DH racers only running custom geo. The big brands decided that the geo was pretty much unrideable by mere mortals and only pro WC riders could handle them.
So we have seen the North Shore steep angled frames (like the headtube has had a heavy frontal impact)
And now we have super slack angles that look like the frame has survived a heavy large drop/landing and fucked the headtube the other way and splayed it out.
I like my frames in the 66-69 o range but i am old and retrovintage :)
