Can't decide what to do I've stripped my cross bike down ready to sell as I'm really not using it in consideration for buying a 29er instead. But just watching a cross video made me get all nostalgic about how cool the cross scene is but then I think I'm not fit enough to race.
mmmmmm
Think this is a pointless post, I'm getting a 29er hard tail...... I think
Isnt the joy of cross that it doesnt matter what level you are, and the races are so short on such short courses that there will be just as tight of a race for 50th as there will for 1st?
Why not get some skinny 29er tyres as well then you can also race cross? If you are not fit enough to compete on a cross bike, you are going to be at more no more of an disadvantage that you were previously.
I know all of what you say makes perfect sense, only attraction of the 29er was it could take me off up long rides in the mountains with some wild camping kit.
I did think of getting super skiinny tyres at same time.
