    Yea, the wheel is directly in line with the bike frame. The Lefty goes out to the side a bit but when you look down on it - it looks fine and doesn't freak you too much....Here are a couple of pictures...

    That's a great question... that I have no freaking clue about but I think based on the geometry that a Lefty is the only option. :eek:

    HaHa. Hey Lents, I had a Mongoose Detour before I bought my Specialized. It broke in 3 hours. Seriously 3 hours. :eek:

    Chain snapped, and guess where I landed! :eek:

    Yea but a chain can break on any bike... I have broken many especially in muddy areas when I crank down hard trying to make it up a hill. Balls on platter when that happens. :eek::eek:

    Are you serious? My chain snapped as well in a matter of 45 min.

    My gears were ruined the first day--still ruined never will stay in gear

    Handlebars, fork and stem are completely shot. squeak, shocks bottom out ALL the time.

    May I need to go on??

    http://www.konaworld.com/09_dawgma_u.cfm

    does that turn you on? This WILL be my next bike.

    New DB:

    Dude! Yellow man! I think it would look better in the back of your truck. :)

    My specialized serves me well. Yours will too.

    The yellow is what I was leaning more towards. What bike do you have? Do you know of any websites that offer up info like TW?
