Is that 29"?
just measured the height of my desk, 29", and it is an average height desk, those wheels do seem pretty big.unless that is a dwarves desk?

Yes it is. Not planning on putting into production though IIRC.

it is a trek, it can't be "niche"
not even if it is a 7" travel 29er Downhill bike, it still has gears and is a trek so fails. So of no interest to the niche meisters of STW.

Looks 29 unless those are 2.1 tyres.
Anyway has anyone told Specialized?

OK - for those who don't do subtle - it is a 29er
Posted 1 year ago # -
yeah i think i read it was just a prototype to test out a few things and not destined for production

Is it wrong that I noticed the Mint Sauce poster in the background before the bike?

Why would they need to tell specialized?
Their patent is for the horst link pivot on the chainstay..
Treks pivot around the rear axle...

That is one very ugly bike.

if it's a 29er the wheels will fold, that's what the guy in the LBS told me, can't go DH fast on them you see
should I name and shame the LBS?
what rims are on it?

first thing i noticed was that theyve fixed the shock to the frame.

those carpet tiles are truly hideous and not matched up right.

isnt that frame mounting location a bit stupid? Since when is a vertical force in the middle of a horizontal tube transfer load well?
Looks like a proto that'll never make it past the proto stage.

Yuk. Its too tall and the centre of mass is too high.

Who cares really. 29er = fail.
