    Can’t get rid of my 26er 100mm Ti HT as it’s a b’day present. I’m not getting rid of my asr5 for 3 years until the nursery fees are done and I’ve decided if i continue with events / racing and buy a racier orientated FS with different wheel size or Trail/AM replacement.

    In the meantime then, I can use either for racing – the latter has race spec wheels and kit which makes them both the same weight.

    But I fancy a new toy. Either a SS 29er, a racing 29er (a sale cube or ‘dale perhaps) or – and I keep looking at – a 45650b evo or commercial ht Sx for shits and giggles. Whatever it is it replaces my hack 26er SS.

    I’m just interested in what others might do?

    I’m desperate for a 29er to see how they ride and a proper audax bike for proper audaxing.

    Can’t afford either, but I’ll happily live vicariously through your wish-list! 🙂

    Didn’t you have a similar dilemma only a few weeks ago with a BMW Filofax Edition? 😉

    Light flicky 29er SS FTW. I can recommend one, it’s a Niner.

    I did bear necessities, but the garage fixed my potentially terminal current car for £75. That was lucky they said, was it, I said….

    Nines aren’t that cheap though bikebouy, tbh the RIP9 is on my list to replace the yeti in a few years. Maybe.

    Swap the light bits onto the HT and make it properly race light. Or SS it.

    Well, after yesterday’s HONC I decided I “need” a Giant anthem 29er.

    The questions is now before 24/12 and sell the asr5 or in three years…
