    A few bolts are different.
    Got a new bike last night. I dont ride anything crazy either... Gotta get the rear derailer adjusted, it involuntarily switches between 4th and 5th gears when under a pulling load.

    Thanks, I like it a lot! it makes a world of difference to have a bike that fits, this one is a 21" frame for my 6'2" height.

    wow, I'll get it looked at tonight. I think it may have happened because the brand new cables are just settling in.

    What size frame is appropriate for someone in the 6' - 6'1" range? I am on an 18" now. I hear mixed opinions on 20" frames for someone my size. I am starting to look at used bikes now, thanks.

    I just realized that I am not in this thread.
    Although this thread is full of some very sick bikes, I still like my GT Force 2.0. Some upgrades to be a little more trail friendly of an all mountain bike.
