Looking forward to the Troy review as well. I loved the one I tried at Outerbike yet Bike was a bit Luke warm on it. They also had some disparate impressions on sizing.

Makes good sense to grow the chain stay length in the larger sizes. Like Unlce Cliffy said, taller folks are more likely to be further over the rear wheel on a x-large front with short stays causing trouble with rearward weight bias and keeping the front down on steep climbs, etc. Really sweet looking bike btw. Can't wait to try one. Not sure why more frame manufacturers don't do this.

Well, I'm tall and I've recently discovered I prefer longer stays for the riding I've been doing. My current trail bike is 17.25 and I've been having a hard time riding other bikes with shorter stays and a XL (25inch) Top tube. I think it comes down to weight transfer, and being centered on the bike for me to feel comfortable at speed. For the XL, 17.125 stays makes sense in this regard...

The fact that Weir is still placing in the top 5 in these kinds of events is super impressive given his age and the explosion of new talent. Way to go Mark! When are you coming back out to the Fears Tears and Beers?
