Just had my custom fat frame order confirmed, and am ordering the post mount, rocker style, paragon machine works, drop outs.
Been spending silly amounts of time on BikeCad, and going back and forth to my 29er. To check how my adjustments affect, my position, weight distribution etc. But I just end up back at my original geometry each time. So I'm pretty confident about it. Needed to keep my center of gravity slightlky further back then I would for a standard MTB. To make it easier to handle in winter conditions.
The builder will get back to me with his thoughts on this. But, I'm not sure about the need for gusseting, and I havent even suggested tube dimensions. But as Triton build mainly trials frames. I'm confident they know how to build a frame, that will cope with being thrown around by an uncoordinated lump like me.
Bloody excited. To put it mildly.
