Well, I like the 71.5 on the Hillborne. Then again, my alltimefav was 70 on the old Stumpyjumpys. That and a B-72 was nighon about perfect.
As to color, my opinion is "so"? If it's lined, great. Never owned a bike that was lined out. If not, fine. Not like I won't necessarily go and mess with it myself. (This from the person who very poorly filled in a few portholes on the Hillawhatta.)
