Disc or V?

Would a 29r fork suit better with the a2c?

How about one of these?

v

exotic has forks with 39 ish a2c too. That 44 would fuck up the geometry

I've got a 420 disc Exotic for sellz...

Anybody > 6'4 riding a Gangsta?

Few more questions about the v2, anyone know the seat clamp size and also what type of headset does it use, is it a bmx integrated??

Seat clamp size is 31.8, seat post is 29.8
Headset as you said, bmx integrated.

Cool, cheers man.

Got an email from Ged re: available colours in the next shipment.
The only large size is in Pink. I ought to buy a 'long' as I'm 6ft but not sure I can go for Pink. Does anyone have experience of riding a 'short' at my sort of height? if anything I suppose it'd give you more options in terms of stem length etc..

I think I need to take the plunge soon or else procrastinate forever more!

Just get pink and rattlecan it?

I'm 1m83 (this is 6ft right?) I'm very happy with my small V1 (40cm) I ride it with a riser and a 70mm stem.
Just be sure to get a long enough seatpost, the BMW one will be fine.

when I (181/ 5'11) got my large v2 two years ago I was riding it with with 40mm stem, now it feels short with 90mm. I can understand especially the v2s being too small for some.

Nope ah ah, I'm totally normal :)
I myself was very suprised to find out that it fits perfectly, and it really does.

i'm 5'11" and ride a short, it's a 55.5cm effective top tube so with a 10cm stem that's pretty much perfect for me, would like a medium like they were doing for a while though, literally the same as the short but the seat tube is a bit taller

Anyone know what the effective top tube for the long is before I start searching around for geo charts...?

57 ish

v2 long:

just notice that compared to track frames it has 73 deg seat tube angle so the reach is shorter than on those

Pink sounds awesome paramandem ...

what kind of pink?
i've got a long in dark grey which i'd trade for the pink if you're interested?

the small will most likely look a bit silly like this

one step further away from being a Frankenbike. traded in the campa cranks for these black omniums...

next up is a new set of wheels...
