Yes.
Yeti 5 (26er) to YT Jeffsy (29). Tried various 27.5s but none felt that much better than my old Yeti to justify the change. I really wanted a SC Hightower but they were too expensive for me.
Wouldn't go back now. The YT is faster on every trail I've tried.
I went for one back in 2007. Never ridden one, just knew it was advertised as a long-haul trucker. I got it as a complete bike and then spent some time on the trainer getting stem length and bars etc changed out to suit me.
I'm still riding the same bike today.
It was an early edition of the Santa Cruz Tallboy 100mm travel and I've still not found a better bike for my kind of riding; its ridden from here to the Alps, then around Morzine for a week. I know there are 29ers now that are designed to do a particular job in mountain biking, but this one still does (nearly all) the biz.
