Hi

Thinking of replacing my Selma with something a bit lighter...

Any suggestions I should be looking at? Can think of a few...

- Niner Air 9 - lots seem to have cracked?
- Pivot LES 29
- Intense Hard Eddie - see Niner
- ?

Pivot LES 29 over the Niner any day.

I'm running my LES as a singlespeed for the winter and it's fantastic. The swinging drop-outs are so much nicer to use than an EBB, in my opinion.

If you're wanting to try the LES as a singlespeed you're more than welcome to try mine and see what you think of it.

It's not exactly heavy though? Mine is 22lbs with spare parts bin bits on and heavy wheels.
