GTF Posted January 1, 2007 Report Share Posted January 1, 2007 In MBUK for some time ago there was an interview with Matt Stalpes.He said that his 24" bike rode either like a big bmx or a new school comp. bike.Does anyone know the geo on his 24" bike?

I normally do street on my Echo Control, so Im used to long bikes But another question:How long is the headtube on the bike?How long is there from the centre of BB shell to top centre of head tube?

GTF Posted January 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 Is this the same bike as Danny Mac was using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTF Posted January 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 And how long is the top tube on this bike? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobinJI Posted January 2, 2007 Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 Going from that geo, the top-center of the head tube to the BB is 630mm or 24.8" And the virtual top-tube assuming a 74deg seat angle is 593mm or 23.3".Its pretty similar to mine, just his has a 1deg slacker head angle and a 5mm higher BB.
