Any Mountain Bikers on Here?

[GrossMan]

Like the Tallboy....reminds me of the Evil Uprising (my fantasy MTB). Are those Enve 27inchers?
Like the Felt too, both my road bikes have been Felts, I've never really looked at their MTB offerings.

I just found this thread!


Here's my current

Specialized Carve 29r

29ers. Buddy of mine was a Felt rep for awhile, thus the Felt.

My current ride:


Santa Cruz Tallboy Carbon with XTR gruppo; Enve wheels, bar, stem & seat post.

LOVE the Tallboy. It looks awfully close to my bike

LOVE the Tallboy

They are hard to beat. I let a buddy of mine in Crested Butte ride it a couple of times when I got to CB summer before last and he decided he couldn't live without one. The only downside is he's an animal on a bike and the Tallboy at least gave me a fighting chance.....which evaporated once he got one.

Ha, ya. I did a ghetto tubeless job, and was waiting to make sure it seal all the way around before cutting off the excess.

Here is one afterwards.

Don't ride very much anymore, but heres my Gary Fisher, Hifi.

 

[Limbwalker]

Shakedown ride to the Garden on the wheels I just built for my single speed cyclocross bike.
It lost 2 pounds and is tubeless now.
Yes I am a smartass, but no I didnt actually ride the trail that sign is posted for

Lol. Yeah, Ive done the 'ghetto tubeless' set-up a bunch.
It works, its cheap... saves a little weight... sucks bong water if you actually flat!
Now I just build my own wheels when I can afford to. My full suspension 29er, and my cross bike both have Stan's rims now and they kick ass

Niiiiccce!!.....but how on earth did you get your hands on one? Last time I checked (April) they were back-ordered "indefinitely."
What options did you get?
Have you had it on the trail yet? - I'm reading that it eats technical trails like candy.

 

[Munkymag]

Getting lazy. Need too get back on it.

:boxer: luv my 29er mtb.

Well My brother works for them, so it wasn't that hard to get. They redesigned some things that will make it better, the newer models should be out pretty soon.
I really like it, goes uphill and downhill without a problem.
My bike is a custom build: medium long frame
fox 36
mostly all xt components, 1x10 drive train 30 tooth narrow wide front sprocket
fox doss seat post
Easton haven wheel with maxis 2.5" evo tubeless tires

What's the weight on it as it sits?

 

[turbo8]

29lbs

 

[Kryptoroxx]

Didn't know there were many bikers on here. 1x10 and still climbs well. It decends like a possessed demon though. The whole suspension is so plush it's like landing with pillows but I have to remind myself that trees hurt and I don't bounce like I used to.

I picked it up used for 800. Now I'm hooked on canfield. Amazing ride.

Keep trying but I haven't made it up to big bear this year

Any recommendations for a Hardtail 29er under $1000?

 

[USKTog]

Just got back from my first trail ride on my new bike (2011 Trek 3700). Was wondering who else on here rode and what kind of bikes you all have.

Here is mine.

Here is my 2013 BMC Trailfox02:
