When you are my size, riding a 29er makes a lot of sense. I'm 1.97 and all legs, with a 1m inseam... My 22" Merida looks quite out of proportion with the seat up high and the handlebars down low. Can anyone say "endo"? So, I'm looking into buying a 29er dually sometime in the future. Ventana, Turner or Asylum. Maybe even a Titus - depending on finances... But overall the South African cycling public seems to be a bit slow on the uptake with regards to the whole 29er movement.
