I had a single speed hardtail 29er for a couple years that was awesome at Morris Bridge/Trout Creek. Since riding Boyette/Alafia more I sold the 29er and switched back to a full suspension 26" geared.


Check out this merchandise ;D  http://azfreeride.spreadshirt.com/-I2496326

I've seen people with stickers too...

29er for life. My first 29er was crappy and weak. But the one I have now has a 26er feel with 29er speed.

Saw a few more pics of 29ers on here, might as well let them add their tire size

26". I've tried a few 29ers lately, but just can't get used to them
