What a slap in the face. Dude read between the lines, your wife is saying "I would rather you ride a bike than me"

Nice setup mate, got the Curnett dialed? Weight? Geo?

Your rear shock has a longer stroke than most members of this forum.

Beautiful bike. Generous wife. Treat them both well, you lucky bastard.

Cheers.

I couldn't have put it any better myself.

However, i'm wondering where abouts in Australia requires 10" of travel? It's not meant to be a stab at your choice, but do you really think it's necessary?
