hahahaha.... I know right... thats how the owner wants it... he likes the ride with a more upright position, I guess... :D hard to argue with the customer.... :)
Is this a home made paint job? It looks good.

That is one heck of a spacer stack. Has he considered a steep angle stem and bigger rise bars to achieve that height?

I haven't decided about the gold bits. I might prefer blue.

I don't mean to nit pick, that is a very cool bike!

YES, it was painted by our bike painter here in Manila. He does quite a good job... Re the spacer stack, not my choice... the owner wants it that way... I already told him that its too high... cant argue with him... RE gold bits... again, his choice... I agree with the blue bits if i had my way... :)
Can’t stop looking at the spacer stack!!!

If that's a medium frame, the rocker will eat the front derailleur cable.
Beautiful yello.....but gold spacers....noooooo way!

Why only on a medium? What's the solution?
I just threw up a little bit in my mouth.
That thing will never see dirt :D

Seriously though, you can argue with the customer that with that much stack, not only will it make the bike feel / ride like crap, both up & down. But that he will develop creaks that will make a 100 year old door hinge sound tame, & but it looks like hell, so please, for the love of God, at least take half of them out :p
Moderator please remove this thread. That spacer stack is downright snuff-worthy. He should put on some antlers(re: bar-ends) at 45 deg angle to boot.
Are riser stems out of fashion these days? What about risers bars with more rise?

_MK
Wow, long neck Spot! Color scheme + steer tube spacers reminds me of a giraffe ;-)

I'd suggest a 2" rise bar.
There's a nice depth to that yellow. So it's painted, not powdercoated?

Now I know the real reason why FOX says 30 mm of spacers max....

No joke!

I am surprised the owner didn't spec these:
