Cullen,

I get what you are saying, but when I rode pepper's indust a few weeks back that was the one thing that stood out to me visually.

Just from an aesthetics standpoint I think another inch of stand over would do make a huge difference. But like I said its just aesthetic.

I changed some parts on my Faction Amero, so here is my current set-up. Right now I run a 26T/10T gear ratio, which is perfect for me (IMO there is no need for a 9T driver!). As you can see, there is still a bit more space between the sprocket and the chainstay, so at least you can choose a 28T sprocket, may be bigger (space between crank and chainstay is 5 mm or 0.2 inch). Due to the longer top tube (21.5 ") I replaced the S&M stem (53 mm/2.09 inch) with a shorter Mutiny top load stem (48 mm/1.89 inch). It feels much better to me. Next week Iīll try out different bar heights. Furthermore I will exchange the plastic pedals (ordered Deluxe metal paddles) and the tires for sure (hope the F22 foldable tires will arrive soon). The current tires have very good grip but they can't stand much psi.
Due to bad weather conditions I cantīt write a elaborate review, but my first impression is, 22" is perfect for me. I think I will never go back on a 24" bike (I used to ride a 24" WTP cruiser for the last 4 years).
current part list:
Frame: Faction Bike Co Amero Kit (21.5 TT)
Fork: Faction Bike Co Amero Kit
Wheelset: Faction Bike Co Amero Kit with a 10 T driver.
Tires: ??? (no-name product)
Stem: Mutiny Lifted 48 mm
Bar: Sunday Victory 8.32 "
Grips: REVENGE Customer Friendly Grips (Best Grips I ever had!)
Cranks: Wethepeople Royal 175 mm
Sprocket: Wethepeople Supreme 26T
Chain: KMC Z510HX
Brake equipment: all Odyssey (the new ghost brake pads are amazing!)
Seat: Fiend Team
Seatpost: Federal
BB & Headset: Eclat
Pedals: ??? plastic with metal pins

I really like the standover height on that bike.  The rest of the 22s I have seen look a little Killerado scooterish.

Site Help and Rules / Random problem posting pics
« on: August 11, 2012, 04:09:10 PM »
I have been having trouble posting pics on the site.  I have had it work twice (once replying with a pic and once when I started a thread).  In my own thread I could not reply with pics either.  I know how to post pics on a message board, I just keep getting a message saying my post needs moderator approval.

Here is a screen shot of the error message I get after I submit a post



direct link in case that fails

EDIT: Of course it would work in this thread:mad2::mad2:
