I come from the Trek Stache, a hardtale with a very high BB height. The Stache is undoubtedly the best and easiest to ride mtb I've owned thanks to its excellent ground clearance.
Now I have an Orbea Rise and am in pedal strike hell. Some trails such as those at Mabie and Ae, which are very narrow, are completely unrideable on the Rise with its 170mm cranks. I've been looking for 160mm cranks for several months without success.
I just can't understand this fetish with low BB height. Trek should produce an eStache.
