Happy to get shot down here, but is it meant to look like that? By that I mean the geometry looks a bit odd at the front; the rake / forks look too long.

I know that probably doesn't make any sense but it just doesn't look right :?

I think the short stem makes it looka bit odd, maybe thats whats doing it.. - what size frame is it..??

yep the frames an 18 the comination of short stem and fairly high saddle make it look a tad odd i must admit, both post and stem will be black soon tho im also toying with the idea of fitting my RS psylos

whats the travel on the psylos??

adjustable from 80mm to 120mm

ok, you prob know but dont run them anymore than 80mm that does upset the geometry.

Personally I think the old kona frame with 80mm forks is one of the best rides you can get... Singletrack beware!

Hmm, with sus at 120 I could understand it looking wonky but not with a set of P2s :? It's almost like they are too long for the frame which I know sounds stupid.

theyre not 'road' or later suspension adjusted P2s are they - whats the length of them??

couple of sweet bikes there
