29er Single Speed

[rone]

Got me one of them beardy-weirdy 29er SS bikes and you know what, I love it. I commute every day on it and get it out in the bush now and again. Nice and simple. Like me. All I need now is the beard and sandals!

A very 'dirtworks' spec'd bike... nice one!
Why the choice for a 17"?

Er, in order to justify buying it, it had to be able to be ridden by my wife too. Compromises... Actually is still mucho comfy even for little old me. Nice and long.
