[url= http://bikemagic.com/gear/cervelo-co-founder-launches-o-1-0-29er-hardtail-frame-weighs-900g.html ]Just reading about this new 29er,[/url] from the guy who designed the Cervelo road bikes. Wonder what the established mtb industry will make of it?

Probably not a lot; it looks very nice, but isn't exactly revolutionary. I gather there will be fairly limited production too, and there's yet another BB 'standard'.

It looks good.

Considering how much the Cervelo Project California is I suspect that frame will fall well into the 'eye watering' category.

Folk with too much money will want one to complement their R3-SL.

I think I'm in love!
I ride a Cervelo R3SL which is by far the best bike I have ever ridden and this looks like the mtb equivalent

2700 dollars apparently, so the price isn't too horrific. There's another post on here about it, it's very nice but I'd rather have an Niner for that sort of money.

Looks very nice but theres a hell of a lot of marketing bollocks in there.

a frame with a geometry truly developed from scratch for 29er wheels

Thats nice to know if I'd be paying thousands of £ for it. I'm glad they went to the effort to at least make the geometry correct.

It's 'future proof' so it will handle auto trim well.
