Chain tensioner 😳 soon to be replaced with much nicer Surly one then by a Eccnetric hub when i've got the cash and choose my rims.

1st impressions are good, feels like your sat on a 26in bike and the steering feels responsive, not slightly dead like you get with some 29ers.

Long ride to work over the mountain then back so looking forward to it 😀
Total weight is 22lbs with pedals,cage and pump.
Also as its a little 'un im impressed with the 2 bottle mounts.

I wish the little people were not so damned wealthy. About half the tubing needed for a great 29er there. Still - if your switch is flicked.

Yea Nukeproof 29er, had a Bonty one before but prefer the Nuke.

Ordering a Hub at the end of the month so should clean up nicely 😀

Ride to work this morning was good quick dart through the local woods, feels like a 26in bike to sit on and steer but has that 29er ride if that makes sense...
Back over the mountain tonight 😀
