Thread: New ride on the way!

    New ride on the way!

    Picking up a leftover 2011 29er Rockhopper Sl Comp. I haven't had a new bike since 97 and sold that one two weeks ago (Gary Fisher Taikai)

    Can't wait to get out on some trails with this one, hope the 29er craze is right...

    I don't own a 29er....yet but i've ridden two different models. Both were single speed and I'm a huge fan. I feel there is a huge difference rolling over logs and rocks. I also have better luck climbing which I think is due to the bigger contact patch. My next bike will be a 29er

    Thanks! I don't think the stock tires will do very well in mud, but I will find out sometime soon.

    I got a new ride this year to. Cannondale Flash 29er. This replaced my 1991 Cannondale M400.

    Very nice ride! I was looking at a used Flash on Craigslist. How does that lefty shock handle? That one sided fork always made me skeptical, but like the look of the bike.

    Handles really nice and believe it or not it feels stiffer than my rock shock forks on my old bike. I love it. I'm heading to Bavington trails today.
