It’s funny, I remember a guy coming into the shop in maybe 2009 (?) with a ‘sized up’ first generation Knolly V-Tack and a Race Face XY offset post flipped around to massively steepen the pedaling position.
The only issue was the long seat tube prevented him from dropping the saddle as far as he wanted.
An interesting look forward all the same.
...
Different person but also a gen.1 (2004) V-Tach and a couple years earlier (maybe 2006 or 2007?), I ran into this guy running 9-speed SRAM 11-34t with a 24t up front with a modified chain guide and talking crazy about the death of the front derailleur.
In retrospect, all the Knolly riders I met back when the brand was getting going where pretty interesting folks.
