Just thinking about the next potential build. For general trail stuff nothing too hardcore but definitely not racing geometry
What would you get?
New Identiti AKA looks awesome, though I'd be inclined to run it with the suggested 120mm forks in 29er mode... From experience, I just find any more travel than this on the front of a Hardtail makes for a bike that changes attitude/angle too much as the fork goes through its travel.
SolarisMax all day everyday
I love my Solaris and a mate has just brought his new solarisMAX frame round for me to have a look at. That's where my money would be going.
Now I’ve had a chance to get out on it a few times I’m really starting to enjoy my chameleon. That’s set up as a 29er with 130mm fox 34 forks and has been riding very nicely indeed.
I've just ordered a Pace RC529 frame in XL. I've been fondling all the build parts in anticipation 🙂
Bird zero 29 as another option.
Solarismax or Pace both float my boat, johnw1984 let’s see your when it’s built!
Johnw1984 was that the last one they had in grey on Facebook? Was surely tempted. As a happy owner still of your old aeris if you end up not getting on with the pace give me a buzz!
Oh no way! I forgot that you'd bought my old Aeris, glad it's still going strong!
The Grey one isn't mine though. I did buy one of the last XL frames in Black with Grey graphics though 🙂
I'll start a build thread once I receive the frame as there's not enough pics of the built up (been googling them today to stare at...).

This bike looks very, very good. If you are interested: maybe talk to bike-discount.de or send Radon an e-mail if "only" the frame is available as well. Radon sells some frames via bike-discount.de
