    Fellow Tennessee-uns, is there anybody near the Clarksville/Ft. Campbell area that has an Scg? I am thinking of buying one and switching from my 9sx, but giving the 9sx to the wife poses a problem. SHE IS SHORT. like 5'1'' short. I am thinking of doing a suspension and body swap essentially making a xb12sx and an xb9scg.

    Before I do this i want to make sure that she will be able to comfortably operate the scg with her short little legs. Does anybody have one at stock height that she could at least sit on? Not asking you to sell me your beloved bike or to put her in the hands of someone you don't know, just hoping somebody will let her sit and size it.

    Thanks a ton guys

    Are there any of you that have a xb12Scg that are short. i need to find out how much lower it can be, and how tall someone has to be to ride it.

    I have an scg, the seat alone drops it down but the low seat and suspension she will still not be able to flat foot. S is 30.6" seat height and scg is 28.6"

    These bikes are a little wide in the seat so she will gain some room, she could probably manage. I went from a fire bolt and not being able to flat foot to and scg and my knees are bent
