29er's have different riding characteristics from their 26" wheeled counterparts. The benefits of a decreased angle of attack of the front wheel, a lower center of gravity, and the greater gyroscopic tendencies of big wheel bikes, have converted many riders to the cult of the 29er. Riders can choose from the single speed steel Pine Mountain 29er, or a new Hydro HT 29er frameset. These award winning hydroformed framesets are incredibly stiff, responsive and durable, and have been tuned to improve the ride characteristics of the 29er mountain bike platform.
