Im just curious on what head angle this has... It seems strangly steep.

    It would be great if you could lock out the rear shock... Imagine that, hit a berm with a bit of speed and before you know it you have a headangle of over 90 degrees!

    It's 69 degrees (tells you on the size chart) which is far too steep for a bike using a Totem.

    Either that or they've accidentally resized the image on the website and distorted it.
    It just looks wrong

    If they've distorted the image it's also steepened up the angles in the size chart - now that is clever! :D
