The Aperture has a standard 1 1/8'' head tube - no tapered steerers or angle adjusting headsets on this ride. The head tube angle sits at a relatively forgiving 68° with a 125mm fork, and changing the angle is only possible the old fashioned way, by changing the fork travel. I set up the Aperture with a 150mm travel 2012 RockShox Revelation that is adjustable down to 120mm to preserve the bike's stock handling. Seat post size on the Aperture is 27.2mm, a very common size when dealing with steel tubed frames. Although, with telescoping seatposts’ popularity skyrocketing, this size is becoming less common - nearly all dropper posts come in 30.9 or 31.6 sizes. However, there are a couple of companies who do make smaller diameter adjustable seatposts, so this shouldn’t be a deterring factor for those seeking on-the-fly seatpost height adjustment. The frame's finish is excellent, with the welds very clean looking and a paint job that is designed to last."
