Just a little Spider 29comp bike porn

[epic]

I really like the Steelers paint scheme.

Can you tell us how the ride differs from the Tracer29?

X-2,, I really was hoping for the T29 carbon, but I see you've given the spider29 some more beef, ISCG tabs and 68deg. HA.

[TheSchwagman]

The naked black with Kashima coat components is beyond sick! It's almost like you tried to match it up.

I rode a Tracer 29 and a Spider 29 at Outerbike last year. The Tracer was much more slacked out, cushy, all mountain bike. The Spider was more of a tighter, cushy, trail bike. If I rode a lot of wide open, mountainous trails, I'd go with the Tracer. Instead, ride a lot of rough, rocky, tight singletrack. I preferred the Spider. It was one of my two favorite bikes at Outerbike.

What an awesome looking bike! This would be my Intense of choice at the moment I think

Mr Intense, do you have any plans on making an alloy version?...

We currently have the Spider 29 and the Tracer 29 in alloy made in house and the Spider 29comp (composite) is really in between the two alloy models.

Aah I see, I wasn't sure if this would replace the current Spider 29 but thanks for answering.

The comp is "in between"? What do you mean? I assumed the comp was just a composite version of the alloy Spider 29.

[Colin+M]

geometry and travel wise I'm assuming.

[mr intense]

Yes not really a "Carbon Copy" of the Spider 29 alloy.

I'm about to pre order the frame but don't know what size to get. I'm exactly 6 ft tall and It seems I'm in the middle of a medium and large size. I'am currently on a large Tallboy LTc with a 50mm stem.

Mr. Intense does the complete bike comes with a black fox 32 float fork? Can you get the a frame only with a black float 32 120mm fork?

[smithrider]

I think the build kit comes with a fox 34 fork set at 130mm travel per a Jeff response to my question in another post. Sounds perfect to me.

My question would be the same, can I get the frame and fork from Intense and not the whole build kit together as I do not want to mess with inserting spacers to reduce travel in a stock fork. I "presume" I don't want the stock build kit as I am hooked on carbon wheels after getting Reynolds on my Yeti.

I'm 5'11 and just ordered a medium. I also am currently on a LTc size large if that makes you feel any better I know from past experience that I would not want a 24.5 ETT on this type of bike.

The bike looks great. Had a spider 2 when it first came out and then a Tallboy. Currently on a highball and am looking for a FS. Curious about folks on TB LTc looking at this bike. Are you selling your LTc? Asking as these are the 2 bikes I'm looking at. Loved my spider 2 but drank the coolaid. a 29er version of that bike would be sweet!

[Colin+M]

I'm always looking...I'm a bike whore seriously though, if I knew of this bike 3 months ago I would have kept riding my Banshee Proto until it was available instead of getting the LTc. I do really enjoy the LTc though I feel that the geo of the Spider is very similar to bikes I have really enjoyed in the past and the top tube length is spot on for me. I will be selling my LTc frame once the Spider comes in later this year.

[velez3000]

I hear ya. Really liking the #'s and the fact that you can put a bottle in the triangle. Looks like a fun bike. Fortunately my shop carries both brands so I'll hope to demo.

[edgonz]

Just because I'm lazy, is the Spider model a trail based model or AM?

BTW, looks fantastic!!

[ignazjr]

At the risk of falling into marketing taglines, edgonz, I'd say it's more of a "trail" setup with a 120mm in the front and 4.5 in the rear. More AM with 140 in the front and 5" in the rear. I guess that depends on your trails and mountains, though

[JudgeDH]

I have a TBLTc on order but...where can I place an order? ...won't mind waiting a "little" more...

[jaredbadams]

Seriously... No XL. Really? I mean c'mon, really?

[Phatass]

Very sexy. But as Jared says, no XL . . . Not so cool. A 29er not in XL is like . . . Ok, it just sucks.

[dirtydoug]

Demo schedule? I need a new full suspension bike.
It would be especially convenient if you guys visited that stand-up guy at Redstone Cyclery again.
