Hi guys,
I need feedback on, what I hope to be, my one and only bike. My main reason is to combine fat bike with e-mtb.
I wanted to see what a full-suspension e-fat bike will look like if it can fit 27.5x4.5 Cake Eaters mounted on 89mm ID rims.
Geometry is based on my current 2022 Norco Sight VLT (small). I'm 165cm with 74mm~ inseam. T-rex arms.
Chain stay length +51mm to accommodate the massive rim + tire combo.
Head tube length +67.4mm to offset lengthen rear-end since I can't lengthen the reach.
Seat tube length matches top of tire so even when in full compression, you won't buzz your butt.
*This is the only fat e-bike frame from XACD catalogue with a straight seat tube.
*If you know an OEM frame with almost same fit, please let me know.
My hope is to use this as my all-season sled here in the Canadian Prairies.
Cheers and I appreciate your feedbacks!
