Show me your rigid 29er's please

As per title…I converted to 29er HT at the start of the year and I have a 26er HT that won’t ever be ridden again that will be morphing into a cheap-ish 1×9 rigid 29er build over the next couple of weeks.

Idea’s and inspiration required please guys 😀

Cheers.

Plenty here:

I’m going through the same process by the way but have settled on a Singular Swift – just trying to get the cash together :o)

And here

This is my Unit and its been great, I do fancy a change though and shortlisted are the Cotic Solaris or a Chinese carbon job.

There you go

Not exactly a looker.

If Angus Young and Animal off the Muppet Show could be distilled into one bike =

Ok not the cheapest option, but honestly, if fun and handling are in the VFM equation it’s well worth the £.

Thanks for the pics and links guys!

Certainly some inspiring stuff, especially in forza’s mtbr link. 8)

Here’s mine.

Fenred,

Nice to here from you!

I would keep an eye out for a nice Scandal frame to start your project.

here is my Scandal again! 😉

This bike weighs nothing compared to my full bouncer and flies up hills. The 1 x 10 set up works brilliantly and the full rigid makes the rocky, off road stuff interesting.

Here it is at 1500 feet!

Tazzy,

How ya doin?

We really ought to get some new stuff, but I here you might be getting a JJ, in titanium I hope! 😉 It’s like watching repeats of Only fools and horses

bish – Loving that monkey!

tk – How you doing mate? Scandal was on the shopping list but bought khani’s GF x-cal frame (even lighter) to kick the project off. Just waiting on delivery of exotic carbon forks to get things rolling….Should be a nice light build! V inspired by your “that blue” scandal tho 8)

tazzy – They are all just mental

good thanks chap. Yep a space frame is imminent, not sure I can let go of the blue one though…is two jeffs greedy?

My cheap bike for future upgrading.

Greedy? and bikes? does not compute? 🙂

I would say, if money allows, you should have a new bike regularly!

If we are doing show off again, I don’t mind

Candodavid – finally got a ride on the Curtis then???

Looks lovely, especially with the DTSwiss forks 8)

^^ Was just about to ask what frame that was…Nice one!

AAAAAAAARRRRRRRRR.

My eyes. 😉

Talk me out of buying a Karate Monkey.

I don’t need another bike. Do I?

Cheap as chips here though…

Stu, have you been trying to get it in your mouth again? I told you, up against the wall with feet in the air!

Nicknoxx – what forks are those?

And that ^ is the third occurrence of those exact same forks in this thread 😉

OK Swede.

I’ll keep trying.

I told you, up against the wall with feet in the air!

Like a Christmas Turkey 😀
We didn’t have any problems today did we Stu ? x 😯

Nicknoxx – what forks are those?

They were made by waltworks[/url].

Like a bum stuffed grinch 😀

😳

I’ve had a couple… 😯

Oh that karate monkey looks like a bargain price. Tempted now!

Is that a Nimble9 Clink ?

Charlie of Bikemongering fame was lauding their praises the other week. Looks nice.

In a way I really miss the Inbred, for what it cost it was a fab bike. The Niner is nice though. Very light & so comfy. Did Cannocks Monkey Trail on it tonight, clearly not the right tool for it, but held its own. 🙂

Pace rc129, currently with 1×9

takisawa2 , I’ve seen other pics of your SIR 9, front end on, can you post please? *draaaaawwwwls*

Edit- SS shep, that Pace looks amazing…A good job well done!
