Giving it another go.

Another metamorphosis of the black bike. With some 29x2.2 tires , it is now a true 29er.
The flat bar gives it a good XC feel, and even though the thing is a heavy beast , it feels quick over gravel , which is what was intended with the build.
I was curious about the whole 29er concept and a little skeptical about it when it really hit the mass markets. They truly do have their place. I have never been much for sticking with tradition, with anything really. A bike like this is a nice change of pace.
