    This is quite the subjective discussion isn't it?

    I like the name. What can I say?

    Subjective

    Yep! And a Reynolds STEEL frame with sliders delivered to my door for $250. I don't care what color or the name they gave it.

    Heck I would have bought it if was called Lunchbox;)

    Cool, thanks - to you both! I'll take you up on that sometime. I just wanted to check it out, see what it's like to ride a 29er.

    can someone explain to me how the rear brakes are adjusted on a frame that has horizontal sliders? maybe i need to see it in person to comprehend but if you changed cogs and had to slide the rear wheel out a bit wouldnt that affect your clearance w/ the calipers? :?:

    Usually the caliper is connected to the part that slides, which the hub also bolts on to...so the hub/rotor follows the sliding...
