That's a nice, reliable build spec you have there :thumbup:

 

Really cool birthday present!

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.

Thanks allot Martin, great to here that from someone with such experience(I am a young inexperienced rider), one comment like that would never kill my excitement, just not the kind of smart comment one expects after writing such an enthusiastic post on a forum for Pyga enthusiasts.

 

Nonetheless I'm eagerly awaiting the arrival of my new steed. Hope to post some pictures soon.
