Hey bud, do mind telling me your height? Im 6'2" and recently purchased a large Mach 6 and it feels a little cramped with a 50mm stem, given my preference to shorter stems I think I may need to go to an XL...

Hey I am 6'2 also and the XL was definitely the way to go for me. I do like my bikes a little longer but the XL is a great fit.

You might notice that the dropper is almost bottomed out on the frame in the pictures. I had just swapped bikes with a ridding buddy so he could check it out. The normal dropper post collar height is about 4 inches off the frames maybe a little more.

Done a few more updates, I'll get some pics and updated the specs soon.

I love love love this bike!

Cool thanks - XL here I come! Hey another thing, my current mach 6 is stealth but I get the feeling the blue option that you roll looks like the paint could be a little more durable - do you have any thoughts?

Was ridding last weekend with a guy on a Mach 6 stealth frame. I didn't notice any major durability issues in the paint. I did notice that after a long long day of very dusty and dirty ridding his bike looked like it went through WW3 and the blue looked like it just got back from a parking lot test ride. Not that its more durable it just hides some of the dust better.

Stealth is always faster than Blue...but maybe not faster electric blue.
