Good I put it the other way around on mine then I get like zero flex. I figured it could have been something smart from a hardtail on that you don't mind some extra flex

Yes, a little give when used on a hardtail. In this case, we've added little gussets to it, to bring back the stiffness.

Glad you liked the bike budd!
This frame has adjustable travel and geometry. Currently at 63° HA. 77° SA (effective). Tapered HT.
In India there are only a handful of riders riding full blown downhill bikes. So we haven't really thought of launching this as a production bike yet.

Actually the stays were created for our long travel steel hardtail project! Later utilized the same tubes for the Dioxide project. Glad you liked the bike!

Looks like 559mm/22in wheels too. Have been wondering what a long, slack bike would look like with the smaller old school wheels!
