As per title...
Have you got a rigid 29er? How did you build it?

I would but I've just had my first ride on my Swift with Reba Teams on it 🙂

Before that it was built with the really rather nice Singular rigid fork, that will go back on at some point when I fancy a change.

What do you mean by how did I build it? Sam sent the frame, and I used allen keys... that was about it.

Ragley TD-1 - this is the Hotlines demo bike. Built up with various Hotlines stuff: Nukeproof, WTB, Blackspire, Ragley, etc.

32:18

Borrowed it twice: in Jult and September. First ride on it was Hit The North: 65 miles in 8-and-a-bit hours. Second ride was 50 road miles, to Hamsterley and back. Third ride was 103 off-road miles at Kielder 100.

Ways naff all. Reet fast. Dead comfy. It's awesome. Race Weapon.

The Ragley carbon fork thing has gone very quiet of late. Problems Brant?

Aren't they being branded x-lite?
Am guessing the aluminium td-1 is back on a back burner as well, much as I'd like a ti version.

Laters a

Sam, that it 1 of the best looking bikes i have ever seen. Is it the large frame and i am guessing at the niner fork?

I'm pretty certain there's a Ragley fork and an X-Lite version with 15mm bolt-thru.

Will - not only the best-looking...also the fastest 😉

Complete with dirt from Sundays bone-shaking and eye-blurring Penmachno ride.

Frame, forks and wheels S/H off here, the rest brand new from Merlin. Switched to Alfine 8 a couple of months ago.

Those tubes make my eyes go funny!

Some lovely bikes here but Sam's is on a different drool level. I'm going to lower the tone and get a pic of mine when I nip to the shops in a minute. 8)

Here we go, it was getting dark before I got the camera out. Not bling but very stable and comfy with the Woodchippers and I like it a lot.

Howie 74. I see what you mean about our bikes 😀
As i said on the other post the saddles are similar to now. I had to double take thinking it was mine i had posted. Looks great.
Where did you buy from?
