This is a trail bike and not a downhill bike if I'm correct. A 90mm stem and 69 degree HTA, seems to be pretty standard for such. Who runs a 67 degree HTA and 50mm stem on a trail bike??? Why are you comparing this to DH standards??? If you want those geometric dimensions then get a different bike. This is a trail bike and you should review it as such. Test it for its DESIGNED purpose. It would definitely add some validity to other bike reviews you may do in the future. As such, I probably wont bother to...
