Experiences with Felt Nine frames?

[//M5Racer]

I'm shopping for my first 29er and was wondering if anyone has ridden a Felt Nine Elite or Nine Pro yet. The price point seems great I just can't find a local dealer with one in stock.

So far I've ridden a Raleigh XXIX+G and an Orbea Alma. The Raleigh wasn't very agile at lower speeds so it's out. I loooved the Orbea but it's a bit more than I want to spend ($2200).

You should see these by the end of March (according to Felt).

These should be dandy little bikes...

Thanks! Received from Felt just moments ago:

29ers have not shipped yet, the most recent shipping info is that they are expected in April.

Now I just have to hold myself back from buying the Orbea....

Considering they only announced the existence of the models about 5 weeks ago, that's not very surprising that no dealers have one in stock.

I wasn't aware of such an announcement. Thank you for your helpful post.
