Here it is the new raliegh XXIX, well kind of I have upgraded to Reba Race 29er forks, cane creek thudbuster seatpost, avid juicy 5 brakes with dirty dog dragon rotors, carbon bars, a few ano blue bits for bling & on one saddle to keep the single speed feeling alive :D . It rides really well can't wait to get it out for a decent ride on the weekend but after taking it down a few smaller local trails I know once up to speed theres no stopping.

Yeah they are 29ers they are a little harder to get going but once your going there no stopping, seriously find this a great bit of fun on the open trails but I'm yet to test it on tighter single track I guess we'll wait & see.
