More 29er Goodness
Today was a very unusual day at the shop.
What started yesterday with a few inbound phone calls, ended up with this:
A customer from Southern Vermont found Bike 29, and with a few conversations throughout the day, we came up with this build. It isn't often that a custom bike materializes in less than 24 hours, but when it does, it's magic. This Dos Niner features the ever popular "Bike 29 Stock Wheelset", probably the best bang for the buck (even if I do say so myself), Reba fork, X9 drivetrain, Juicy brakes etc.
I can't wait for the first post ride phone call. This is his first 29er.
Also, in glowing white, we received an On One Inbred, our first one. This is a very cool frame, made from CroMo, and capable of handling discs or V-brakes, singlespeed and/or geared set ups. Based on the quality of this specimen, we will be seeing a few more of these in the near future. This is a very versatile frame for an amazing price.
Stay tuned for more...

The Inbred looks very nice.... Do you have a weight on it? I like the versatility of the brake options and dropout configurations. Might be my first 29.
The Inbred IS very nice! I happen to own one. Here's a tip, G: When you set one of these up for a customer, you might want to rough up the paint and the drop out interface a tiny bit. It helps keep the drop out from sliding when you don't want it to. I think Brant has served up a beefier tensioner, if so, then disregard my comment.
I think the Inbred is a pretty sharp tool to have in the quiver. I'd be interested to see how the Niner compares to it.
Looks sharp! That wouldn't happen to be a 16" frame would it???
I'd love to see a comparison write up on a 16" On One vs a 16" Karate Monkey sometime.
Thanks!
Mark
