i recently moved to louisiana. Its nice, but my road bike is collecting dust. My SS cross bike is seeing more use, but i really want more. I have ridden some trails with my friends before, and now im itching to get a new bike, and this time im feeling a 29er. I typically prefer a quicker handling bike, but im open to suggestions.
The models I am considering are:
Redline monocog
Kona Unit 2-9
Jamis Dragon one.
Raleigh XXIX.
I would prefer disc brakes, but BB7's aren't that expensive and can be added to the redline and still be in the ballpark of what id pay for the others. Just wondering what the general consensus is on these bikes, if anyone has any comments. Im open to other suggestions, but these are at the top of my short list.
