Review
As soon as i got on the bike after it was built up i noticed the high bottom bracket. Once i got used to this though it felt incredibly stable on the rear wheel. It is soo much better for general street trials riding as you can really throw the bike around. I think the bottom bracket is 68mm shell, and the recommended axle length is 128mm. This bike is best suited with a stem of around 100 - 110mm with a 10 deg rise. It is reasonably cheap as it is a 2004 model so it has been reduced in shops. Definately a good buy, as it has good street, and competion trials geometry.

Review
I have the short wheelbase model. Taps are fine due to the higher bb on this model. Nothing bad to say at all. Good for all skill levels.
