NINER_boy Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 Hi "Bigger" HUBBERS Here is my pride and joy... Loving it more every day Enjoy
Two Wheels Trading Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 ZTR are awesome value for money. There is a 75kg limit on the Crest wheelset. If you want to go the ZTR way, the Arch 29er will be perfect. Also consider American Classics, weight is also in the 1,600g range. WIth no weight limit issues. Race Gold 29er Wheelset -- 1345g -- suggested rider weight limit 75kgCrest 29er Wheelset ---- 1580g --- suggested rider weight limit < 90kgArch 29er Wheelset ---- 1780g --- suggested rider weight limit < 105kgFlow 29er Wheelset --- + 105kg riders The above are only guidelines based on Std No Tubes ZTR Wheelset builds --- using different spokes can achieve different rider weight limits eg. a DT Comp vs DT SuperComp would increase the strength of a wheel, but add weight.

Jaco-fiets Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 Nice bikes guys! I must admit out of all the 29ers i have seen lately my favourites are the top of the line momsen/niner/specialized/cannondale flash/merida/scott. I think i just named them all Im beginning to think that a 29er would be a nice extra bike. One with XT or X9 just to go play with now and then
Weight Weenie Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 The 2012 American Classic Race wheels at 1 410 grams will be great value for money. WOW ! Then the 26" model should weigh next to nothing
Wyatt Earp Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 WOW ! Then the 26" model should weigh next to nothing1 321 grams with a 28 mm. wide rim allowing one to use smaller and lighter tires.
Weight Weenie Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 1 321 grams with a 28 mm. wide rim allowing one to use smaller and lighter tires. Ok you have my attention Thanks will go check it out, love the wide rim, same as the MMX rims width I think ?
KnobbyMech Posted September 26, 2011 Posted September 26, 2011 Bought the frame on Saturday. Love the ride.
FSA Posted September 26, 2011 Posted September 26, 2011 Seems that the 29er issue has become the most bespoketalked about matter among pedal pushers, with so many pro's and con's discussed (or argued) in every magazine, on the hub, and on rides. It is not the intention of this thread to start another 29er vs 26er debate, but to rather show those who are still contemplating the leap, our big wheels. This is mine... a Spesh Stumpjumper S-Works.There, fixed http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bespoke
