Well I drove through to Wales yesterday at 4am knocked on this dude's door at 7am prompt. Hesitantly paid out loads of blue notes! Then hopped back in my car at 7:15 and was home by 10:30......but too shattered to ride.

So I got the big wheeled carbon clown bike out today and I am a believer!

Holy crap! 29ers really do what they say on the tin! Not sure they gonna replace the 26er. But the things they do, they do well!

Very very pleased and anyone considering getting one, need not hesitate.

Here are a few pics on my 2011 Stumpjumper Carbon Comp. Soon to be upgraded with XO Shifter, Carbon Noir Chainset and some Ritchey Carbon Bars.

£35 pair or £20 each. Nice light tyres, if you dont use these ones get yourself some race kings they work really nicely over epping.

Jon its responsive. Loves the corners! I had the idea of getting it for stage racing, but its quick! Very quick! You should take it out for a spin.

Noel I wouldn't let John near it, he will replace the forks for Totems and then spend the rest of the time looking for where the cane creek rear shock goes!
