I used to like the 29er forum because it had all the signs of becoming the next Waco, but there' only so many times you can say something like "High handlebars definitely impact on your climbing ability", get ripped through for saying it, then 4 months later one of the "chosen" ones says "You know what, lower bars are pretty cool becuase they help you climb better" and then the minions all clap in unison.

And this doesn't happen once, but EVERY ****ING TIME I say anything over in that freakville. If I said "It's a nice day" Someone would go "What do you mean!?! "Nice"? What, are you having a go!?! It's snowing! It can't be nice, I'm cold! Are you having a go at black people, coz I'm black and we're not supposed to be used to the cold or something!?!?!"

I was going to build myself a 953 29er at one stage, but now I think I might shelf that idea just based on how insane 29er riders appear to be. It's like take average Seppo, rip out sarcasm and banter recepticles, replace with over-sensitivity and whinger components and *BAM!!!*....instant 29er fanatic!
