Thanks everyone! Yes I cut off the stem, and I will be using lots of grease in the future. It seized up in a matter of about 4 or 5 months of non-rainy riding. I was shocked. At any rate, I think I'm leaning towards the Hunqa now (or maybe the Bomba, oh my, another decision). And I do weigh around 200, and I fluctuate 15 lbs. either way (I haven't been able to go Primal, but that's a whoooole different thread.) In all honesty, if I can keep my weight around 190, where it should be, Homer is plenty fast. And really, I've been riding the C'dale while Homer is down and I rode it for 4 years before I discovered Riv and sensible sizing, so, while not optimum, it won't kill me for the occasional club ride till I get the right CL deal on a bigger one. Looks like it's order the Hunqa/Bomba and sell RH after it's built.
