....wheelbase?

I knew my Enduro SL was long, but bloody hell - 47.75" 😯

Feels stable mind you.

It's always the longest bike in the van, but most other bikes feel really short to me - I do run it with a 50mm stem though. Have I got the worlds longest AM bike?

46.0" nukeproof mega AM in medium

It definitely takes some body language and creative line choice to get it around uphill switchbacks, but it's brilliant on the way back down

42.5" apparently, but no idea if that's in the short or long setting, so +/- 1" (Evil Sov.). It definitely looks like a bit of a BMX when stood amongst more modern AM-type bikes.

Banshee Prime - 48" with the dropouts in their 'neutral' position, so probably a smidge more than that in 'Low'.

Its a big old bike though. Rode it to a shoot once and one of the runners had to move it - saddle came up to his armpit 🙂

Pretty sure my XL 29er horsethief is longer, would need to measure with current fork on. About 48 off the top of my head tho. 60mm stem too....
