A note to old forum members...
I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.
Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.
Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...
If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.
If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

He might not have overlooked any details, but he sure passed on many of the basics. :-\\\"No detail was overlooked in this project"
Other than the price which is a pipe dream. It looks like a nice bike. ..........

Is there enough shock travel for the seat to hit the rear tire?Never seen a seat setup like this. Looks as if it would catapult the rider like an ejection seat.

Nah, not a wedgie. It would be the same as sitting your bare ass on a thickness planer.I didn't think about that. Boy if those bolts broke it would drop you right onto the tire. Shinko wedgee....
Whenever I see something like that, I just think the owner/builder/rider is dumber than yeast.Never seen a seat setup like this. Looks as if it would catapult the rider like an ejection seat.

How would it feel to ride this off road?This makes a lot of sense??

I wonder who was the "pro" that hacked this perfectly usable bike up.

Looks to me like, with the length of that seat swing arm, even if the shock travel were excessive, only the rear of the seat would contact the tire. Now, if the bolt broke that holds the "swingarm" to the frame, that's a different story. Looks like a nice solid build though.I didn't think about that.

Dumber than yeast? Looking at that bike i think you owe yeast an apology.
