    Business partner of mine wants to get a full suspension 29er and isn't in the price ballpark of the Niners WFO, etc.

    I'm not a 29 guy at all...and have zero to offer him in terms of recommendations.

    Can you all give me three options for a mid-range 29er to have this guy go check out? And by midrange I mean he's probably looking to spend a grand to two grand for the complete setup.

    Thanks

    All fit into the less bling category with Frames running around $1k or less. Especially for the Flagstaff, or the Canzo.

    the canzo is chewy proof, and thus chewy approved. I paid ~8 bills for my frame a year ago and thrash it....

    What about a Stumpjumper 29er? Those might be a bit cheaper than other options.

    Stumpy 29ers are 1800 for the frame if you buy new. Unless you can find some sweet deal. Maybe buy a used Stumpy 29er?
