[Mads Kock]

moooooooooooooooooooooooooore piccies!!!!!!

only if you give me nice carbon brakes

[Mads Kock]

Mads , you already had a Ridley crossbike??

Hello Boogie,

I sold my Ridley Supercross because it was too big - didn't really feel good on the bike because it was too long and too high! This size 48cm suits me very nicely!!!

48? How tall are you?

[Mads Kock]

170 cm

[Boogie]

that's not a big frame.. I know a guy who is 174 and runs a 55cm frame..

[Mads Kock]

really??? also a Ridley Crosswind?!

[XTC-Max]

that's not a big frame.. I know a guy who is 174 and runs a 55cm frame..

but he had to glue his saddle directly onto the top tube, didnt he?

[Mads Kock]

Nice - no seatpost! That's true weightweenitisme

[Ridley]

170 cm

I wouldn't want to race against you on an uphill time trial

[XTC-Max]

i think if you kneel down and take the picture from the BB height the proportions might look better than they look know. right now the bar height/saddle height ratio seems a bit weird to me...

also, you then got the right position to worship your beauty

[Mads Kock]

do you think that the handlebars are too low?

[XTC-Max]

no, i f.e. ride without any spacers and with the stem turned down. but i work for an MTB magazine, and whenever we take pictures of bikes (f.e. at Eurobike, where we got our own Photo-booth) we shoot them from a lower position to get the proportions right

sth like this...

[Mads Kock]

Thanks for the advise - here are some pictures for you

[Boogie]

really??? also a Ridley Crosswind?!
