Bontrager Privateer Comp 1998, Now Single Speed!

That looks really extreme :shock:
I´ve never seen such a large tire.
This site really is awesome, as are its contributors.

Would a 650B function with my stock judy xc do you think?

Been out with the bike.
Sorry to say there is still some snow around :?

Actually, how does a 650B ride?
Seeing the frame is the same, is it slower in handling?
How does it take trails?
I´m really starting to be interested in it :)

It rides about as fast as the 26" rear wheel. Definitely not slow starting like the 29er.

The fat front is heavy but takes out bumps like a monter truck abd it's fun in snow, very stable in snow.

Just wanted to update with a picture.
This is what it´s gonna look like, except the front wheel.
That´s gonna change this spring.
