Paperclip Posted July 9, 2016 Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 Explain the geo changed you've made please? The seat isn't my thing but its growing on me, the grips look like they're from some early 2000's micro scooter also. The fork dropouts look pretty cool. Nice bike Jason. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEON Posted July 9, 2016 Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 (edited) You do know the XL refers to the tapered headtube right? Which you don't have... Edited July 9, 2016 by LEON 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

old boy chez Posted July 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2016 (edited) My bad gents I was under the impression the geo was what made it a xl. I didn't tweak the geo it was Ross's doing. 2 hours ago, Paperclip said: Explain the geo changed you've made please?

The grips Ali c recommend and to be fair they are all right I like them . @LEON Would not be me if I did make a little mistake public . As the geo is longer than the previous archive that was my understanding on it being called a XL . I know it's hard to belive but I have been know to make a few mistakes in my time ... 1 hour ago, Dman said: Is that the xl part the fork dropouts?

Paperclip Posted July 10, 2016 Report Share Posted July 10, 2016 To be fair Marino posted up a photo of some standard headset frames and called it the XL so I presumed that was the newer geo reference myself. Jason's photo skills are as good as mine, if not better though. Needs the other wheels on it for some extra bling! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then I'll be called out for things not matching . All I care about is the bike feels so much better than its predecessor so I am happy with it .

Ross McArthur Posted July 12, 2016 Report Share Posted July 12, 2016 Haha! @old boy chez sounds like I have to whip big M dog into shape. I came up with the silly XL thing. Only because the difference between my last Archive and the new one, was the tapered head tube! So you can go ahead and change the topic title again. Winky winky. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh ffs...... I give up .... Is it a xl , is it not a XL . I am at the point I don't really care . It's a marino . It works . It's mine . And yes it's green .. With a brown seat . You know what I got it .... Ross I am ripping your idea, it will now be know as the DIET XL . " It's longer but not as fatter " Any way geo is bang on @Ross McArthur . My first one I did really like but this feels better , hence me calling you the mastermind. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
