Turtle will definitely be able to ride this 36er v set up, I am curious to see how he likes it compared to a shorter bar set up.
I wouldn’t mind a purple phaze/florian green set up, as the handle goes a lot closer to the seat and there are a lot of options. Turtle is taking it to a next step though and it looks like his set up will put him in the same position as a road bike and it will be very stretched.
That is part of the reason that he is using a road bike saddle, as he will have more points of contact similar to a bike and a road bike saddle will prob. be more comfy than a bulky one in that position.
My guess is that it will ride like a heavy road bike on the road, I am also interested in seeing a vid.
