Anyone tried it? I'm interested in a 29er to take 100-120mm forks for general riding. I'd initially thought of a Sherpa but it looks very short in reach (the same as my 8 year old Swift!).
So thoughts on the Pipedream Sirius as a 29er or other options? I still have my Phantom for bigger stuff so an XC/agrotrail 29er would be grand.............
Also interested in this frame as a 29er what size tyre (make and model) are people running?
Cheers
Anyone?
I've just built one up as a 29er, only had 3 rides though so far as I was a bit over enthusiastic and broke the cranks and freehub while out last weekend 😳 seems to ride really well, much smoother than the ally bike I stole most of bits off. It's on 27mm internal rims, maxxis shorty on the front and a 2.2 beaver on the back. Fork's a pike at 140
Grand, thanks!
What is tyre clearance like? I still need convincing that it is a 29er bike not bastardised 650b+.......
Do you have any unbroken pictures? 😉

Tyre clearance is fine, sliding dropouts so sliding them back gives plenty of clearance. I have photos but no good ones!
Just emailed you a couple as I've nothing to upload them from
