So far i've used my kh29 for slight distance and a bit of cross country. The speed difference compared to a 19" is VAST I knew it at one point but always forget; what does -yuni- stand for?? -- jamessd My videos: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=WpBvnO6wVG0#GU5U2spHI_4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_xkZLQzvf2g http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=mtnedg1YS8c Add me: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jamessd's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/15102 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/64498 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

I use my KH29 for MUni and big climbs. Eventually I intend to put an extra gear in it and use it for long rides too. -- phlegm ------------------------------------------------------------------------ phlegm's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/8382 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/64498 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

29" Discussion thread
I have been riding a 24" for about 2 years now. I just unpackaged my 29er last Thursday. It has been on exactly ONE street ride and TWO muni ride. A Phlegm can attest to I am not a powerful rider but here was my experience. 1) I felt my skills dropped a couple of notches on the muni ride. I felt tipsy at times (although the speed was a rush). The slower response time took a little getting used to. Being unable to slow down on descents when the speed built up a little too much tested the axiom "Don't ride faster than you can run" (I am installing my brake tomorrow). I was a little disappointed with the 2.2 inch tire, I felt a lot of rim (I'll run more pressure next time), while the bigger tire smoothed out some of the bumps the tire did not seem to provide cushion. 2) Now for the positives. What a Freaking Rush to go fast!! IT seems to just beg you to turn those pedals over. I am running 150mm cranks, due to my lack of fitness. But, still WHEEEEE. Overall I would rate my 29er experience (all Three rides of it) as a 4.5 out of 5 -- garyWpope ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garyWpope's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/12972 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/64498 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |
