What size is your MKIII? I'm also looking for a 5"-6" bike. I love my 29" singlespeed but for my FS I want something that can handle more abuse than most 29ers and I'm looking at various options.

Thanks,

ps: Sorry for the hijack Ricky. Was it your Canzo that threw you over your head on the Plunge?

Its a small.

[Rockinthecasbah]

Yeah my canzo tried to kill me, I think it was more of the fatigue in my arms from braking that through me on my head. This is my 3rd 29er and I have come to the conclusion I am not an XC guy, Trail riding is great but I dont like the feeling of being held back by being on a XC bike, also for my style of riding and short height a 29er has fitment issues

[Rockinthecasbah]

say 1200 for frame/fork/wheels/tires
ill even throw in the tubes for free !!

Yup. Toe overlap for us Smurfs; also hard to use "body english" when you dont have a lot of body to english with. Same problem with my Raleigh XXIX.

Bump

[Rockinthecasbah]

Yeah for someone who is into fireroads and things like that its great, I just feel like I have alot less control while riding rocks/drops etc.. but I tend to ride my bikes differently then most people would on a 29er xc bike
