Any recommendations for a fully rigid 29er?
Want to put gears on it so needs to have a rear hanger.
Oh, and on a budget (300ish)

Frame or full bike?

Full bike preferably, second hand for the money. Just wondering what to look out for.
Like the look of the cannondale sl ss, but not sure if the frame has a hanger

Trek superfly. Niner carbon fork or a bontrager Bowie. Big ask to find them second hand at that budget

Yep, was thinking I would be on ally for the money
Budget could stretch, but don't want to spend to much. It's for commuting

I'm running my SL with xt 11 speed. Should be no problem.

Cannondale sl29 ss doesn't have cable stops on all of them, but you can change the drop out for a hanger type and run full length outer with stick on cable holders or cable ties

Pinnacle Ramin 1 often go for around that amount on ebay - depends on if you want new or s/h though.

See, that cannondale looks great for what I want. Thanks for info on changeable hangers.
Will also look at the ramin, look pretty much spot on

+1 for the Ramin.

I've been commuting on mine for nearly 3 years and it's been excellent.
