Hard to believe there isn't room for a little bottle in the front triangle? Cam and I were chatting today actually and wondering why more companies don't throw bosses in just for accessory mounts (pump etc). Even if a bottle doesn't fit might be able to sell someone on a bike if everything other than their water can hang on it? Either way the Pinner is probably the FS bike I most lust for at the moment.
I'd love to try a Belter. 61.5 HTA?! Having spent a lot of time on a (static) <67 HTA hardtail, every hardtail I've ridden recently with suspension is comparatively too steep with sag and deeper into the travel is meh. To the point I'm running a lot of HSC and LSC and giving up some comfort (and traction) to keep the fork riding high. Is 61.5 too slack with a 160mm fork? I'd love to know!
Their Ranger with a set of sliders could easily be my next S.Spd other than the $-vs-unknowns factor.
