Stevief Posted March 31, 2011 Posted March 31, 2011 Does Morewood make a 29er full suspension frame?? Anybody out there know??
splat Posted March 31, 2011 Posted March 31, 2011 Not that I know of, but Momsen is cooking one up and if I understood the subtle hints correctly, Scott has one in the making too. The Morewood Kwela is available in 29, but that is hardtail.
Multisporter Posted March 31, 2011 Posted March 31, 2011 No they don't. They only have the Kwela hardtail so far.
Chubba Posted March 31, 2011 Posted March 31, 2011 I'd take one of those, Zula 26er and Zula 29er. Would look perfect in my bedroom!
Stevief Posted March 31, 2011 Author Posted March 31, 2011 Ok thanks guys was just wondering as i am thinking about getting a FS 29er but im not to thrilled at whats on offer in the mkt besides the Spez epic which i cannot afford there is no other FS29 er out there that i like thats, within my budget. So i guess i will give it another year when the next gen FS 29ers arrive.

Chubba Posted March 31, 2011 Posted March 31, 2011 They are awesome just way out of my budget. what does a Niner fs retail for?Giant 29er and Trek 29er are also both nice and more reasonable. The Tallboy and RIP 9 are more trail oriented. The Giant and Trek I have looked at are more XC bikes.
TheSlowCyclist Posted March 31, 2011 Posted March 31, 2011 There is a Santa Cruz Tallboy alu version on it's way...I would wait for that, should be significantly cheaper than the carbon one.

I know that in a year from now the prices will be reasonable and the choices even better. So i will have to rough it on my FS 26er for a few more months
