Sweet. I'm building a wheel for my B-Side to go geared when I don't feel like riding ss.

I have not used this bike with the original rigid fork but this bike is set for fork with 100mm travel and so far its super fun. I'm still adjusting the rebound on this thing. I will be taking this out to the dirt for the first time this weekend

Doope dude. I recently rode my friends 1x1 29er with a tubeless setup. It was the most fun I've had on a bike in a very long time. This bike and my friends bike has convinced me to get one in the future.

These frames are affordable too! I would say check out the new karate monkey with the changeable drop outs for ss/gears/thru axle options for versatility.
