I am, absolutely love it. Really agile as I have the chainstays set to minimum. I have decided to never bother with 29+

What setup are you running ? I'm wondering if it's worth spending £500 on new wheels or just double that and get a half decent full bike and sell the Stache.

I went frame only as I had parts to use.

I have 140mm 29er pikes(not boost), scraper rims built on hope pro2 hubs, chronicle rear tyre and Speccy purgatory front. 1x10 zee chainset and zee brakes

Maybe it's time for me to look around for some 650+ wheelsets and compare prices. Nothing seems cheap when your looking for both plus size and boost.
