Has 140/160mm travel. We’re testing front mech positioning right now – either on the swingarm or the seat tube is possible and we’re just trying the options.

No production price or deadline sorted yet.

It’s odd when you are 6′ odd and ride bikes in a certain way. You think you have it all covered, then some shorty on a 29er points out something you hadn’t really noticed.
The problem is the fix adds 15% to the cost price.

Finally got it nailed this morning in a way that would make Mr Lazenby, my old engineering drawing teacher, smile. Lots of centrelines and offsets and stuff. Now just up to the really clever guys at the factory to make it into a grip.
