 Sparkle Black on some BMX frames
 I finally bought a dropper post and am really glad I chose a 150mm travel version. I tend to use up every bit of that standover for mid-trail obstacles.

 Direct mount disc mount: this was necessary because a certain manufacturer of bike parts "made" a 110mm BMX disc hub by taking a 135mm MTB hub and placing smaller cone spacers to reduce its width. This left the disc about 4mm off and made it impossible to use the standard brake adapters.

Mr Nice Guy

RR's mini racers with micro bottom brackets (20mm bearings) and integrated seat post
This color (chameleon green) is more pale gold-green in real life. I'll try to take pics in better light sometime

AM frames

Travis' slack AM designed around long travel forks:
based on fork sagged at 105mm:
68 HA
72 SA
-28mm BB height
16.1" CS
31.6mm seatpost


 I'll need a dropper post to make this the trail bike that I always wanted. Same exact geometry as the frame above, but with a "special" bottom bracket
