    Nice! I must admit... that the simplicity of SS on a 29er is very intriguing :-$ Enjoy the new ride!

    No way will I get a rigid, 29er, or SS (or any combination of that). Maybe I'm just a baby but I like my gears and suspension.

    oh contrar my friend… you must not recall who was lagging behind during the Aliso ride last month. Until I get my legs/lungs back and drop all this sympathy weight I’ve been carrying around I will be WAY off the back for awhile! ](*,)

    Amigo, welcome to the cult. What is the gearing? is it a cassette or freehub?

    How's that hand. Let me know when you want to SS the beginners ride this weekend might work for ya.

    Funny Stuff

    LBmtb & Gurp13, i'm with you guys. :D

    Gears and suspension is the only way to go ;)

    Why would anyone want to hike-a-bike a killer hill when you could climb it if you only had a granny gear and a 34 tooth gear in the back and totally be able to conquer it? ](*,) :?:

    :lol:
