My mate is building a full sus 29er. Probably XC style.
I'd quite like to join him on his trail rides. But as his FTP is 100 watts more than mine on the road. I can see keeping up being painful on a fully rigid SS 29er. So I'm looking at building a budget bouncer. I was thinking 26" wheels as I'm barely 5'7". Then breaking down and selling off the Spot (sad face)
I could use the fatbike. But I've never owned a full sus, and reasons.
Thoughts?
Any epic deals around on this defunct wheel sizesize?
