mine is not made as a 29er

it's the first custom made singlespeed frame that i bought

i tried to sell it but nobody wanted it

maybe because it was to expensive and has not enough space for a bigger than 1.9" rear tire

but it is built for 80-100mm forks

so i built a 420mm pace rc31 in it that was laying around

the fork is that much too short as the 29er wheel is to big

because i didn't wanted to build a new rear wheel for the bike i took the one with the white eno in it

so i can change headangle and bottombracket height if i want

Is this a haiku or something?

No, Stroff is Swiss... also one of the few Europeans that is into 29ers.

Good to hear. After having built a 29er, converting my 26er to a 69er is going to be my next project. I'm going to use the same fork, a Pace RC31 although the CT model. Nice to see a Wiesmann. A friend of mine used to race in the Pirate Team way in the days. My conversion is a winter project, but once completed I'll posts pics.

Gruss in die Schweiz, collideous

here is a pic of the Surly I have been rockin' lately. Love the way the 69'er rides, but for overall getting down to buisness I love full 29's, but that is a personal preference. The 69'ers are incredible in their own special way. Love it, JC

I'm going this route too with a Zion frame I received in exchange for a Sam Adams Sampler 12 pack.

Just need a few more things for it though. Specifically a rear disc 26" wheel and a front disc 29" wheel.
