This is because it has a shorter cage which would be more suitable for small wheeled bikes, as it can give more ground clearance.tylstevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05202331639299348481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3932426191875887596.post-16265082499077259162015-04-20T09:57:16.507+08:002015-04-20T09:57:16.507+08:00Hi Steve,
