...to please make frames in the future with a 76.5° head angle.
Am I the only flatlander who's wishing this? :? :? :?
You know, less than 75° is sooooo 80's. 8-)

I petition them to make frames with a 75 head angle and dropouts you dont need to run chain tensioners with. Oh, and to start making bent tubes for the seat stays, like the OG quamens. Oh, and to make a simple fucking sprocket that isnt crazy drilled out and shit. Why is it so hard?

I really don't want to make whatever issues I have with Quamen (and I hardly consider this an "issue anyway) but I think this is one that should be worked out.

I don't understand why they don't make a normal frame. 19 tt, 75 degree headtube angle, and you don't need the tensioners to run the bike. It would sell like hotcakes regardless of their being one or two frames out with the specifications I listed simply because the quality of the frames is so well regared by pretty much every major name in flatland.

Just makes no sense to me.

  Yeah I tried the 73.5 head angle for about 6 months, it felt good from the start, but never felt "natural" even after 6 months. My old steep G4 felt the best. We'll see how the 75 works out...........

76.5 is always available as a special order through flatlandfuel. Quamen will make it for us. As long as you can be patient for it.

I still love my 76.5 g6.  love it, love it love it.

chain tensoners aren't that big of a deal for me though, why would a person not like tensoners?
