That frame looks wicked (in a good way), can't wait to see her glamour shots!! Everyone I know with a Pivot loves them. If you haven't been riding full squish you will love the change.
"Wicked" & "full squish"...I love it! She's my wicked, tough-girl pink & black, full squish, fun on wheels! And no, I had never ridden an FS before Saturday. I'm stoked!

I'm 5' 1" with a 28.5" inseam. I'd be 5' 4" and riding an FS 29er if my upper body was in proportion to my legs. BTW, if 29er's had originally been developed for shorties, people would think the bigger frames look weird.
