Growing Boy = Next Build!

 Oops I did it again!


M has been growing and growing during the pandemic, his 26er just finished is already small. He's been taking control of his brother's bike with me and his Mom's rarely used 29er when there are 3.


Those days of 3 are my favorite, I am Darth Vader with my 29er Tie Wingmen.


Anyway, I just sold a very nice 29er. Doh! Kick. I did some frameset hunting, sold out or expensive. I started looking for bikes "like a Nukeproof Scout 29er" or "like a Santa Cruz Chameleon" and guess what happened?

Commencal Meta HT!

The last 2020 in the country, in the Colorado facility. XL in size. Somehow the American public didn't know where to look for this French beauty or lacked the imagination, but I am not completely American now am I?!!


So its mine, er, ours. 



Do I do a video series?

I am moving fast on this - I tore down M's NSBikes Clash fast, ordered a new set of XT brakes, got a 210 mm One Up dropper which I installed onto my rig already, the older parts going here along with the very big carbon wheels from Santa Creme. New DHF goes  on the old front for this project!

Z will ride this (I will of course be required to test often), M gets Z's, and we'll have 2x 26er framesets and one set of wheels 4sale.
