That was what i was thinkin at first, but i figured i'd end up spending the same money upgrading. At the sub $500 level, most of if not all, the components on the Redline have to be suspect.
I'm a little torn whether I want to go rigid or suspension fork, GF Rig comes w/ a RS Reba.
So while the Monocog 29'er is still on the list...what else would be a reasonable solution staying at or under $1000?
