Thanks for the info guys. I'm not in any kind of hurry, I just didn't know if anyone had any experience with Nashbar brand bikes. Bikesdirect has a few that I've been looking at also, but my LBS has a redline monocog 29er that I fell in love with a few weeks ago, but it's a litte more than I wanted to spend. Looks like it's time to start saving my pennies.
