    What’s that behind the seat clamp? It’s ok.. but I can’t tell how low it is from those angles. Most of their stuff is too low for my taste.

    ……OK KHE TELL ME HOW CAN YOU MAKE A 74,75° HEADTUBE ANGLE !!!!

  • andrew

    Mainland Europe uses comma’s where you’re used to spots (periods?) in numbers, there you go, you’ve learnt something today

  • bob

    its 74 point 75 degrees you divot

  • largemarge

    frame looks pretty good compared to the others, looks like a solid bmx frame and not a scooter

  • RICHARD

    That’s there because James Foster likes it stiff in the rear.

  • RICHARD

    Um….yeah……well…….raise your hand if you think you could feel a .25 degree difference in your head tube angle. I’m a fan of choices, but this is ridiculous. Also, he is mainly a dirt rider. His shit should be at 73 degrees !

    Feel free to set me straight if I am off base here.

  • davey

    umm, what about the mongoose already named that?

  • James Foster

    My bike has been out since the beginning of 08. Mongoose sucks.

    The 74.75 headtube angle is pretty good. I rode an s&m LAF and LTF and those both have a 75 degree HT angle but I thought it was a little too steep. Most bikes are 74.5 which is fine, but I love the 74.75, it feels good. A little steeper but not too steep.

    Also it’s a normal looking frame, no scooter bike here.
