Alandavidpetrie79...seeing those hubs on your green Solaris literally had me email Surly yesterday, to enquire about re-anodising my SS hubs in red. 🙂
But, will probably just go for a wheel swap to some TN719's on red Pro2's. They just look superb with green.

Random carbon eBay special frame, rides really nicely, striking resemblance to a Scott Scale IMHO

About to be [url= http://www.mtbhimalaya.com/ ]thrashed around the Himalayas for a week[/url], fortunately I remembered to stick a chain on 🙂

Well it's the STW non-niche niche bike of choice 🙂 I'm very happy with mine - full review I did a while back here:

I've been lucky enough to enjoy two really, really good 29ers recently. I´m afraid that they are not very niche but they are not very mainstream either!

[img] [/img]
Mostly I have been riding the Commencal Meta 29er which is seriously fast and playful. I've put in over 60 days on this in the last few months and am really sad to give it back!
([url= http://www.bikerumor.com/2012/05/18/commencal-meta-am-29er-first-look-ride-impressions/ ]First Impressions, Í have to write the full review this week![/url])

[img] [/img]
I have also had a test ride on this and will pick it up for a long term test this week. An Orbea Occam 29er which is going to be a lot of fun. Less travel and more racey than the Commencal but seriously stiff and precise with fantastic suspension. Looking forward to using and abusing it over the next few months.

Niner One9 set up for speed - now with added barends.

I've been thinking of a Niner MCR or Cotic Solaris set up to be a bit more trailly to go with it but the Singular offer from Sam is very tempting...

I can't get used to seeing 29ers with gears, and suspension after years of SS Rigiding.
But then again the only place I have taste is in my mouth, and with women obviously

My lastest

Shred - just out of interest what size in the tallboy? Ive got a Scott Scale 949 at the moment and thinking of doing the opposite of you and going to a full sus. If you fancy a swap or thinking about selling it drop me a message 😀

Fenred - I don't know what you mean, it's got a Planet X stem!!
The chain is a Shimano SS chain, can't remember the model, can find out if you're interested.
