Hi, 29ers are not that common yet, and pricey. I would love to see one converted! I have heard that a local folk from a bike shop actually converted a regular...
Hi Tom, A donor matrix is a great idea. I'm afraid one covering suitable 700c ("29'er") full suspension bikes would be a very small matrix. 29'ers tend to be...

Rides very nicely after a few adjustment issues. It is a very "easy" ride, once you relax and use your legs to steer. Riding to the local bike shop tomorrow...
A most excellent conversion. Good choice of handlebars; very much like the Sofrider arrangement. Let us know how you go - Congratulations! Be well, Doug...
As far as i understood, a 29" mountain bike tire are too wide to fit the cruzbike kit, but a slimmer 29" (700c) wheel can fit. I happen to have an old 29" MTB,...

Here's a question for the group. I've run into a problem. The drive-side bearing housing nut on the bottom bearing of my donar won't budge. I know it's a...

Hi, Looks great. The long flat tube can come handy if you would like more recline. I paid $160 for my EFX at Wallmart's and later I saw it for $129 on their...
