First Rida
Conventional bottom bracket shells so you can add a direct-mounted chain device. While the suspension systems look very different, they're actually very similar in principle.

The short bobbin head tube is still a conventional inset rather than fat based tapered tube, which reduces weld area, but it'll be upgradable to a tapered fork unce Cane Creek releases its 44 tapered headset.
