What does this mean? It means that as sizes change say for the CR, each bike has it's own combination of tube diameter and wall thickness. The reason? Ride quality. Say I was 6'4' 260#'...my frame would be built with bigger diameter tubing and slightly thicker wall to give me a stiffer ride. If you built a frame for a person that was 5' 4'' tall and 130 pounds with the same tube set, it would be much too harsh of a ride and overly heavy for the size of rider.</p> <p>This size specific tubing holds true through every bike we make. </p> <p>If a person was able to fit on our stock 56cm, but was much heavier than average we would want to go bigger diameter and thicker wall in the tube set to make sure the frame was stiff enough.</p> <p>I hope this answers your questions.</p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Jon@Moots </p> http://moots.com/bbpress/topic.php?id=175#post-1088 Sat, 12 Feb 2011 14:50:22 +0000 Full Mootion 1088@http://moots.com/bbpress/ <p>Jon, is probably the right one for this but if others know I'd be grateful. Excluding RSL's are the tubing sizes (diameter / thickness) specific to each model or are all the road bikes made with same size tubing and MTB with same size?. Where would Mootour and Psychlo X tubing fall as they seem to be their own single offering? Thanks in advance for the education. </p>
