'09 or '10 Cannondale Bad Boy Ultra???
I'm in the market for a BBU and I just spoke to my dealer yesterday about ordering one. He said the 2010 models would be in stock next month. He didn't really know much about the differences between the two, only that the 2010 model with have a single fork up front with a headshock. Should I go ahead and order an 09 or should I wait for a 2010 model? Can you run 29er tires on a BBU?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Sounds like they're putting a Lefty fork on the '10s. You cannot put wide 700cc/29er tires on current BBU's,you can put 26" wheels with wide tires. If the new models have Leftys you might be able 29er tire on the front,but you might need a wider rim,and I doubt you'll be able to put one on the back.
