2011 Rocky Mountain 29 SE

[yeti_bomb]

After racing my first XC races last fall I decided I need a XC rig. Got a great deal on a new Vertex 29. Will be building it up as a 9 speed with a One Ghost carbon fork. Chromag and Thomson parts. Hope to be rolling on this one in the next few weeks. Miss the feel of 29 wheels.

Loving the front shot. Always liked hardtail Rockies but never owned one. One day...

Thanks.

More pics later, the carbon fork is mounted so I can throw the wheels on it tonight!

Re:

The bike is shaping up nicely. Super light. Real curious how light it will be when finished.

Re:

i'm looking forward to see it finish... I'm very curious about this vertex

1x10?
1x10, mech. discs, dropbar... could be an interesting gravel...

Re:

The build went well and took it out for a high country climb to one of my favorite peaks Thunder Mountain in the San Gabriel Mountains at 8500 feet. Quick climber! Not sure I will keep the One Ghost carbon fork.
