Should have posted sooner... here's the Big Kahuna!

Lookin' good!
Kona do a nice OEM bar and stem.

Top rig mate!!! I agree with Hud, the bar and stem look ace!!

nice one, how's it feel now your riding the BIG wheels

Cool Bike Chumbox.:thumbsup:

How much pressure are you running in the tyres? Mine are fairly low 20-25psi and give much better grip there.


ps. I won't show you how dirty mine is now.

Hud: Thanks, yeah the bar and stem are sweet. First time I've bought a bike and not wanted to just change them straight away. They feel great too.

wannabeRacer: Second 29er but first with gears and suspension and must say this bike is smooth and quick

Stevob: Not sure what pressure I'm running at the mo' but set it quite high since I had some give in the front now but slowly winding it back. Think I'll end up around 25-30psi in the end which is where I used to run the rigid 29er anyways. You're right the lower pressures give tons more grip.

Bottom line is I'm never going back to 26er after this bike.

wow, that's a BIG call chumbox, 26er is fun to ride too, both wheels has advantages and disadvantages

sweet bike!

i really ought to get round to posting up pics of my "new" bike.....

I don't think it's that big a call. I feel the same way. There must be something in it.

Just stop it with all this temptation! All I do now is wander around the house thinking 'what can I sell to get a 29r' and cannondale make a sweet single speed and that would complete the set.

Nice bike btw....

Nice. I've dug Konas for many a year.
