Low B.B. and ups / effects

1520 Views 18 Replies 11 Participants Last post by  WhiteRavenKS
I heard people saying that a low B.B. effects upping height in a negative way. After making the choice to saty stock, I 've been looking at the woodman, but realized it has a 12" B.B.. Andy T, or anyone else riding a Woodman T-Pro, has the low B.B. affected you upping / other aspects of riding?

Thanks for the help.

It has reduced them to 1 - 2 feet lower. It is the worst idea ever, my woodman bb is not 12" ... it is 11 inches and change. I can barely up around 46" on the woodman, and hooks are playing with absolute death. It is horrendous for slaps, horrendous for anything with more than 2 pedals. Good for wedges...


If you aren't at a level where bigger things are needed it is a fantastic, and cheap, frame.

Thanks for the insight.

That kind of sucks, as right now hooks and big pedal ups are my weak point. :down: Well I guess I'll keep looking, thanks man.

HAHAHA, I've always thought of putting a tape measure in my camelback to have around, guess I'm gay........

lol seth, you wear a camelback ALL THE time when riding- normal levels of gay do not apply to you :p

Just joshing...the only time I've measured anything was over a year ago on my crescent, theo had some tape measurer and the wall was 52" to bash (omg bash?!). That was in skyline park, which is now dead :wtc:
They've torn it down. They're going to put in some rolling green hills with room for vendors, etc.. sucks.
I thought skyline park sucked anyhow.
it was hard ot ride there because hobos took dumps in the fountains. there were some big cheese moves there though... too bad they will never be hit now that its gone.
