Pipsqueak Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 My other bike is a Pyga 029 with SLX crank, 32T single front and Oneupped cassette. Now I just need a longer fork! (And move my dropper across).

LazyTrailRider Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 (edited) Shot for the comment bud. One way to kill someone's excitement. Haha, don't let your excitement be killed. I've ridden more bikes than 95% of people here on the Hub (I've been racing MTBs since 1989 and have owned dozens of brands) and I can say without any doubt that the OneTen29 is one of the best - if not the best - bikes I've swung a leg over. Remember, reviews are always biased, even if they try not to be. All other reviews so far have been (correctly, in my opinion) overwhelmingly positive. Edited March 13, 2014 by Martin Hattingh

Hope to post some pictures soon.  heini 1
