Frame Geometry
A: Top Tube Length: 20.75″ – Learn what size is right for you here.
Perfect for riders that are between 5’6″ to 6′ 3″
Getting a top tube that is taller than suggested will make the bike feel more controlled and less responsive
Getting a top tube size that is smaller than normal will make the bike feel a lot more snappy and responsive.
B: Chain Stay Length: 12.6″ – Learn About Chain Stays Here
This is a short chain stay.
A short chain stay makes the bike feel twitchy. Spins will be easy, but airing and jumping might feel hard to control.
A long chain stay will make the bike feel really controlled. Spins will feel sluggish, but manuals and air tricks will feel nice because it will be more stable and controlled.
C: Head Tube Angle: 75.3° – Learn About Head Tube Angles Here
Steep head tube angles make the bike “snappy” meaning more responsive to fast turns.
A less steep head tube gives you more control.
D: Seat Tube Angle: 71°
E: Bottom Bracket Height: 11.6″
F: Stand over height: 8.8″
This is a medium standover.
A medium standover balances responsiveness and stability.
2021 Fit STR (LG) Price
This bike is right under $450. To me that is a little over priced for a bike that only has a chromoly front triangle and single wall rims.
2021 Fit STR (LG) Quality
This is a beginner bike with entry-level parts. I would not recommend this bike if you are an experienced rider.
Here’s why it is lower quality:
- Tri-moly frame – What is trimoly?
- Single wall rims – Why does this matter?
Buy if you are learning:
- Feeble
- hops
- 180
- pull up barspins
- x-up rides
- smith
- double pegs
Don’t buy if you are learning:
- 360
- big drops
- tail whips
- bar spins
- grinding hand rails
