An I know before anybody says it the steerer needs cutting 🙄
I bought a cheap stem first and will play with the height and stack a little to get it right.
New stem (Thompson) will be on order by the end of the week and the steerer cut by next week at the latest

Riden it twice so far and god it feels quick! 8)

Kermit Green is my fave Niner colour - very nice

Had an Air 9 for the weekend a while back - it rocked. Climbed extraordinarily well. Very fast bike 😀

yep looks right to me too, I know some 29ers do just look a little odd
especially the smaller ones, which I just don't quite get personaly ❓
It's only a large size too so not one of the mahoosive XLs
