Thanks, Matthew. I'd be happy to share details of the build, and my experiences (ie mistakes) along the way. I'll post something a bit later. The key detail I...

Thanks Matthew, I got a message from Ryan in Albuquerque who has a 59 and said that seemed like it would work well with the seat height I posted. We're going...
