Serious question...does that back end flex much?

IMO - a little "flex" just means more cornering grip on flat/off-camber corners.

Love the geo on this thing - the pedalling position would be so easy for going up - and after experimenting with similar geo on the Ripmo I can only imagine how amazing this would be heading downhill. I already have another project planned or I'd be all over this.

Oh man. A little bit wee came out when I opened the page. This thing is wicked!
You're seriously selling it???

So what's the other bike in the shed that's better than riding this?

Haha.

I got a deal that I couldn't refuse on a Nicolai / Geometron g16. Running it as a 27.5. Coil front and rear. Little bit longer than this. STA not quite as steep.

The Marino definitely is a better climber. Not sure if it is the 29" wheels or the STA but it's an incredible climber and scarily fast descender.

Thanks for the offer. Would have loved to but unfortunately the Tardis is in the shop at the moment in SE QLD.

I'd pay $5 to spit on a specialized.

Not charging anyone to take her for a spin, just have a you bend, you spend policy.
