Anyone have a take on which setup is the better version of 429T?
I just demo'd the bike as 27.5+, loved it, and am considering pulling the trigger on a purchase.
Won't be able to demo one w 29 wheels. Only thing I missed in the 27.5+ compared to other 29ers I've demo'd (Camber alloy & Ripley with waaay too long of a stem) I've demo'd is that feeling of maintaining speed speed so well - the bike carrying it's speed through smaller hills, roots, and rocks. But what I liked was how maneuverable and balanced the 27.5+ was, and how good it felt when airborne.
Also, how does the Trail feel as a 29er compared to a Ripley or even Tallboy?
Any thoughts appreciated!
