That started the brain spinning, because the way I ride my hardtail, a Drop bar rigid bike would work just as well. with also being more practical. As I still have full suspension mtb in my arsenal. (himod scalpel)
So what's are suggestions for 29er drop bars, or gravel bikes that fir 29x2.1 - 2.4 tires
Just bookmarked that frame. Like the mounts. Alu frame.

I was aware they did those tri-bar things but surprised they do a frame like this. Never seen anything like it in the XXS with such a short reach. Third smallest frame is bang-on my fit requirements.

I guess you could call it a poor man's Cutthroat geo. At that price though I'd most likely find a carbon fork for it (Steel fork weighs a ton).

Would have been nice to do 2x with it also.
