Lancelot,
That thing looks badass! I like the Fatback fork. Do you have it set up as a 1x10?

Thanks. I have it setup as a 1x10 for now. Not sure how it will be with the BFL's but I should have some time to ride tomorrow to test out the bigger tires. I used a 3x10 on my Fatback last season but mostly stayed in the middle ring so I thought I would keep this one simple. Really stoked on the frame though. Crazy stand over height.

What crankset, BB and what size ring?

I'm running E13 180mm cranks with 100mm BB and 32t Race Face ring.

Anyone have a BFL mounted on a 100m rim in the rear yet? Just curious if there is enough clearance in the chain and seat stays. I saw the Facebook pic but my clearance looks almost the same on a 70mm.

Where did you get 180mm cranks? I asked my bike shop before ordering and they said the 100mm bb cranks only come in 175mm.

I know you can order from e.13 online now, and they sell 170-180 online...I think your bike shop might have been misinformed? Also, can be bought straight from fatbackbike.

I bought the Fatback stamped version directly from Fatback.

I have an 80mm flattop rim mounted to a BFL in the back, plenty of room. Actually, I think there is more room than the regular larry, same rim, and the 2011 frame.

Cannot wait to build it… but I need to at least wait until my wife gets her size small red 9:zero:7 frame from Santy Claws, and then I can first build hers.

You need to "practice" the buildup on yours first, that way you get it perfect on her bike. "Honestly honey, I did it for you."

I'm in the process of ordering that color in XL, the color looks great.

Nah, I’m just swapping components (minus the seatpost) from my Pugsley to my 9:zero:7, whereas hers has a complete Susitna build kit ready to throw on there. Additionally, she doesn’t even know I bought her one, so the element of surprise is on tap here. For sure these are exciting times!

Thanks guys - I'm digging the style of the new frames too! As for the fork, I like it. I haven't had time to ride that much yet though - hopefully tomorrow. I think some of the other forks look cooler (like the White Bros) but there is only so much funds to go around.
I'm a shade under 6'3 with a pant inseam of 34 (though 35 would be perfect if I could find it). My crotch measure was like 35.& 7/8's. I find my knee is a tad forward over the pedal spindle and I have been sitting back on the seat a tad. Like I said i only got one ride in though. I am far from having this thing dialed in for me.

Give a setback Thomson post a try. I'm a little taller than you with a slightly longer inseam and I got my XL to fit really nice with that post. Great bike by the way!
