Francis Bacon, 1st Viscount St Alban, KC (22 January 1561 – 9 April 1626) was an English philosopher, statesman and essayist but is best known for leading the scientific revolution with his new 'observation and experimentation' theory which is the way science has been conducted ever since. He was knighted in 1603

at 6' - 6'2" and assuming you are normal weight for that height, you would definitely want something over 180..

not to mention he helped stop the revolution against queen elizzibath the first. He was also her prime investigator, and leader of her policing force.

Freeskier said that they didn't like to turn...I thought they had the same type of eliptical sidecut as the Lizzies, and those are turny as fuck, has anyone ridden them?

Don't listen to freeskier -- take everything they say with a grain of salt.
