The frame is built by Solid Bikes and was originally Trans Rootbeer Brown, but my 20" is also brown, so I did a quick rattle can putty colored paint job for some mid school flavor.
Shoots.

Looks awesome man.

[dude...]

yeah real nice, id like to have seen the og colour though, sounds lovely

[Bunky]

Damn that looks real nice!

How does it handle for doing manuals with the super short back end and the tall-ish bars set up?

[cmc4130]

very nice!

Thanks.

The rear is not that much shorter than my previous set up, which was 14.75".  With 26:10 gearing and no half link the rear end length is 14.5".  The front end height is just about the same.
I've only had limited time on it, but immediate impressions are that the front end pulls up easier and the balance point can be found and maintained easier than the CR24.  So far, I'm diggin' it!

Dialed! What's up with the rear hub?

[Fundamental]

I picked the hubs up from Farva.  As far as I know, it's a regular Madera cassette with a ti driver.
I did have to get 3/8 to 14mm bolts from Profile though, since my previous frame had 3/8 drops and this frame is 14mm.

the highest I've ever been off the ground, on a bike, was on my Liquid.

Find some dirt jumps and roast 'em!

Refined the front end a bit.  Got a 48mm Fit BF stem and Sunday Octave fork.  Lowered it a bit from the photo, the 10mm spacer has been swapped to a 7mm.



Also put on the OE stickers.

The bike feels awesome!  It fits me better with the shorter stem.  This thing is fast, fast, fast.

[Bunky]

Wow, those forks are sharp looking.  I need to get some.

This bike is rad and I want to ride it.

I am in the process of building up another cruiser, though...

[CMB]

Get a pair of those S&M track mark tires for this bad boy. Then you'll go really fasttt.

[Fundamental]

Yeah these tires are slow, but they grip well and are a decent weight for a cruiser tire, so there're staying.
I've spent WAY too much on this, so I'm going to chill on purchasing stuff and just and enjoy the ride.

[Sasha]

I need one of those seats. Bike looks badass.

This thing looks great! I enjoy my 24, it's a nice change from the 20 once in a while.
