Question about the two different tires. So this is a thing, right? Whats the point? Who else does this?

Yeah that’s a rider’s bike. Those frames are shweeet. Looks like a blast. That Troll fork is heavy though. Apocalypse ready but heavy.
I like more bite up front too. Fast and squirrely out back but front end washouts are very no bueno. A super fast combo is a RaceKing rear, CrossKing front. Very very fast. Or CrossKing rear, MountainKing front if you need all the bite. Still fast af but more bite at both ends. Tape those rims up and add Stan’s valves and sealant. Then air way down and experience one of the best things of the 21st century.
Wrap that chainstay with leather lacing and chain slap is silenced. You ride rough like I do. There is a bike in my profile here that I wrapped. It’s called “a whipping” and is a nautical thing. YouTube or Google or whatever. Lacing is cheap af and comes in every color. It’s easy.

Also just noticed the fork. Is that a 1 1/8” steerer on that Troll/Ogre (?) so the head tube is threadless ready

What’s going on with that stem? Is it a chopped regular stem adapted to zero length? Pretty awesome if so!
