Cracking bike. It's bang on how I'd uild it (except for the bars). Been toying with the idea of buying one of these and feel a little more convinced.

I love the look of it, It doesn't seem to look like an MTB with big wheels, more like just a big MTB if that makes sense?

Just with a really tiny chainset.

First time I've seen a 29er and actually thought 'I want one of those.'

RedTed, do you mind if I ask what the seatpost diameter is, please? Wondering if I could go for a frame/fork/rim swap with my existing 26er.

Oh, what BB format does it take?

Hi Redted,
Was wondering what size you ended up getting for the Big Top? I'm about the same height and very keen on these models (after some extensive research on alternatives). I think at 5'11" it'd be a medium, based on the 19" 26er bike I currently ride. The TT length is 23.4" with standover height of 30". Based on the size frame you've got, how's the ride? Thanks for your help!!

Love mine ๐Ÿ˜†

Lovely bike. And happy to see you are so happy with it.
29ers roll, and indeed rock

That's one more of us and one less of them.

Ps: plenty of 2.4 Nobbly nics in stock with 2.25s due next week

Yeah, it's great trying to self-impose classifications on riders based on the size of wheels ๐Ÿ™„

Lovely looking bike though.
