No 900 series whatsoever and those on E-bay seem to be drawing a premium price these days. The catalog year I checked for a 900 series showed an ETT of 60cm, which is way too long for me.

The allure of the 730 is that I already own one, I like the geometry and it appears I can run 26" wheels on it without making any modifications other than sticking on a different fork. The only geometry related changes I can see are a lowering of trail from 74mm to 66mm and a lower bottom bracket.
