ive just found this thread while searching for the Globe recall... I rode mine for a few years and then its just sat in a 1/2 deconstructed state for a while.
seeing this build has given me some ideas to get it to where I originally thought it would be when I rode it home. immediately I wanted to add a shorter stem and some mountain downhill styler riser bars to it, and now seeing the 29er bits I'd love to add that and some more gears to my rear wheel. I bought the San Francisco model initially, so it has the internal geared hub, which I meant to regar but never got around to.
wondering if I could pick your bran about what direction to take this.
thanks.
