Gullwing Bikes Gannet

My Brother designed and built the frame to my custom geometry. the frame was built with thicker carbon tubes compared to previous ones he's done. for more details on how the frame was made search for the bike check on the Gullwing bikes Chip Bandit.

I like to occasionally do really big rides and my local trails are very steep and technical, although not super fast for the most part, and I wanted to have something that wouldn't feel out of place in the alps or at a bikepark but could still do the big rides I enjoy, so the high antisquat and reasonable amount of compression on the shock are paired with a DF hub to keep the pedal feedback under control. This pedals significantly better than my previous bike (2020 Specialized Enduro)

Full 29"

HT 64° & 145mm

Reach 510mm

Stack 678.5mm

BB Height 347.5mm

CS 465mm

Seat Tube Effective 77°

Frame travel 175mm @ 25% Progressivity, mostly in the first half of travel
120% Anti-squat at sag for that great pedaling.

Modular Ti/Alu upper link and lower shock mount to make kinematic changes easy (cheap) in the future

Removable Ti Trowel downtube Protector for on trail emergencies

Fits a 1L water bottle and a 400ml bottle full of tools and toilet paper, although making this work required a lot of effort modifying bottle cages. The current solution is only temporary, but I am quite proud of it, the only thing missing is a pump

Since these photos I've flattened out the saddle and fitted 50mm rise Spank Spike bars, as well as a 40mm 31.8 Spank Spoon stem
