I appreciate the lead.
If I cannot find a S or M Izzo, that might be worth a try. My unfounded logic says, if a large does not seem too crazy to sit on, then maybe a medium is a better fit than a small.
I will send you a message if it comes to it. Regardless, I appreciate the help.
I am sure you already posted about your experience with the Izzo on the local trails, so I wont ask you to repeat it here. I'll go check the history, but please link if you have a recommended read.
Is your Jeffsy a 29"? If so, that might be a good option.
I am new to all this and still learning what geometry matters. I am running the numbers against the Izzo and my current bike. Looks like the Jeffsy stack and reach is really close. Aside from BB drop, most measurements are within about 2%. This looks like a good option.
