Being 191 cm (6' 2") tall, I should probably be on a 29" bike but I want a high end carbon frame (ie. high stiffness to weight ratio) for XC racing. Can anyone give me a list of companies that offer something like this or is it non-existent?
I've always thought Fisher has the best geometry - when will they be offering carbon frames?
Also, doesn't the shorter head tube on a 29" frame combined with a longer fork and bigger diameter wheel offer less steering stiffness compared to a 26" equivalent?
