would say potentially too small, do scott have a size guide for the spark? would start running out of seatpost

sorry, yes its a 19" yes its tricky to say for sure, all i know is if i go for smaller frame the seatpost ends up over max! i use the lizard skin downtube skin, or effetto do a 3mm thick helitape which i have used in the past, lizard skin stuff looks better though

I'm 6ft but really long legs and shorter arms, i use a 80mm stem, doesn't feel cramp. My main issue with the frame is i can't add air to the trunnion shock without partly removing it from the frame, i see this has been amended on later frames, but know good for me! rides well but isn't as pedal efficient as my pivot 429 but its much lighter and slacker head angle

nice to see they have resolved the rear shock access, i have to remove the shock to access the shrader valve on my fox trunnion shock, which is a nuisance to say the least!

29er / Trifox TL-CFM-S01 full Suss (New American eagle Flow)
« on: February 06, 2019, 06:39:52 AM »
I'm a little out of touch with the chinese open mould scene, had a Hongfu hardtail for many years but then picked up a few Pivot frames through a race team. I'm interested in replacing the Pivot Full suss as its just so heavy, 2650gram with hardware. I race 4, 6, 12, 24hour events mostly, with a few stage races when I can

The Trifox frame came up on aliexpress, and then looks like American eagle have picked it up as their new full suss, review https://www.fiets.nl/2019/01/30/nieuw-gezien-american-eagle-flow/

Anyone have any knowledge about them? the geometry suggest they are very slack? which is good and bad, not just a spark copy?

Looks good, what are the axles like? are they're replaced with a lighter option from carbon-ti or similar?
