should be not much effort is cutting the seat tupe lower,anyway if u were to stuff the whole post in the seat would most prob be alight with the highest height of the ear wheel too cause this is a 26" frame. not sure bout the price yet, or even geometry. Rockman's site is not updated with it. hope my local shop update soon. IMO it will feel like a norco with neutral like slight BB raise, except its alu and its designed for a rigid for an HS33, Vs and disccmounts
