Hahaha that's exactly what I am thinking. I think the large is going to be just too tall for me. It's a sad happy moment.

I've ordered one! medium 29er in the black / red
My decision has been made slightly easier by the fact that the black and silver I wanted has sold out...will you guys hurry up and buy the others, these things are a steal.

And @Psimpson7 congrats.

Ughhh, I want but can't justify.

Edit: what is going on with those reach and stack numbers, seems short and high?

Yeah, numbers are really close in the large PP to my current medium bike (which is no long, slack low bike) apart from the seat tube which is way up there.

It's a strange choice of geometry isn't it. Looks low and slack in photos but geo chart tells a very different story.

They are still in stock though

One less now.:oops:

I guess I'll answer a few questions myself about ST length and geo.

Now I just need to find a DVO Diamond in 26" and green, this might not be the bargain build I was planning...

I think we will need to start a PP build and ride thread after all of this. I picked up the Shan GT in medium before really looking into the geo. I guess Ill find out next weekend if its to small.

Yeah it looks like the Post Your Rid (or For Sale) threads may be getting a flood of PP builds.

That code that @PJO -thanks mate- is still working as well.

Won't post to Australia. Can anyone reccomend a freight forwarder?

They are free to setup an account.

Offer you differently priced freight options and will do additional things for you for a small fee. For example mark item as a gift.

I used shipito to get a set of forks sent out. They were easy to use, free account and email pics of item before they are sent. I have no hesitations recommending them. I’m sure there are other options but have only used this service. You have the choice of shipping options as well
