Finished with my mulling and did the buying thing , not 29 for me if this is anything to go by the 29 will be an excellent bike.
Happy shopping.

Given that the alloy ones are going cheap just now, I'd say yes. £500 off at some places (wheelbase for example) is quite an incentive.

66deg, that looks lovely but your lawn needs a good feed in places!

I've just bought one, lovely bike, but I would say that. 😀
Only had one ride on it, but it felt very natural after my stumpy evo.

Was it a Stumpy Evo 29 uselesshippy? How do the yeti and it compare?

SB95 owner here, i'd recommend one in a heartbeat. I've owned a rumblefish and 29covert in the past and the Yeti is superior to both in all ways. I have it built with fox 34's, 1x10 Zee drivetrain, 30t wide/thin, hope/flows and reverb so pretty much the spec you suggested and its a superb trail machine.

I demoed one and thought it was fantastic. Less snappy than the sb66 but not sluggish. Incredibly smooth* and very quick. If I had a spare £5k for a 'posh' build that's probably what I'd get.

*I've tried a few other 29ers and they all felt rubbish, the 95 felt right.

i did my sums yesterday and reckon i could put together a pretty flash build for about £2.8k

that would include rs revs, reverb, 1x10 zee, hope/arch ex wheels, good tyres, thomson stem, carbon bars, xt brakes and so on.

I test rode one but didn't enjoy it, felt sluggish on anything flatish, was great on the downs though

I test rode one but it had some skinny maxxis somethings. No grip. I ride mine with Hans Dampfs with abot 25psi in. It flies! Tyres are important.
If you get a Yeti, it has to be turquoise!
