I never got inspired with the Fritschi because as the guy says, the easy shortening method he does can only shorten it a bit due to the slot milled into the tube. Same problem with the front. I got into shortening the Pures because they work best for lighter/smaller people anyway, so they're the perfect binding for kids, tiny women, tiny guys, mice, folks like that (grin). Good mod.

What would it entail, and how difficult would it be. Thanks Gray Lou,
