I think it's actually only a 110...just looks long in the picture.
My dad is from the old school touring mindset though, so it took him about five mountain bikes before he managed to force himself down to sensible frame sizes, sensible stem lengths, and sensible chainrings. 😂
I was chatting to him last night, and when he rode with some friends from Leicester to Lands End, he was on a five speed close ratio cassette, with a 56t chainring! He just said "I was a lot fitter then" 😂 -
I did have a 150mm Answer Atac on my S-Bike, and my dad got Dave Yates to build him a custom 150mm, negative rise stem for his Marin Pine Mountain he had at the time. That was still mtb number 2 though so he hadn't moved so far away from his touring background. 😁

Just at my folks for a couple of days so grabbed a quick shot of his Dekerf in the garage. 😁
