Title says it all really......want something light and aggressive in 29er with 135mm min fork to partner Tallboy LTC
Appreciate any input/abuse
There is a good review on Pinktrike of the Carbine 29.
Personal opinion is, the graphics on both are horrific. I couldn't spend 'that' much on a bike & dislike the finish that much 🙁
Obviously you may love it though!
The Stumpy seems universally loved by everyone who has ever reviewed it, but you're getting a great bike with either, so a nice dilemma to have.
Don't forget the spider comp too.
Goes from 114 mm to 127mm rear travel so probably enough for most UK trail riding with the added 29er effect. Plus it may just be a bit more lively/speedy/racy than the carbine especially if you build it that way!. There's the option to run 120mm forks but also still the option to put a 150 pike on it too for rowdy days!. So probably more versatile than the Carbine!
So in summary and TRUE stw fashion i recommend my bike 😀
