big chris: I’m sorry to say that the Niner titanium project looks to have been scuttled with no plans to resurrect that in the near future. Niner’s Chris Sugai told me at Interbike that there just didn’t seem to be enough buzz from consumers or dealers at the time it was shown and shortly afterward to make them very excited about it.

Then other more pressing projects started to happen and well, you know?

what tubeset in the main tri and the rear tri?

it is prolly tough to price against the namesakes in Ti frames at this point. we might not see it from niner for some time to come

We are working on a dual suspension 29er – it is aluminum
The Ti 29er is a hardtail and will be out winter time [or early 2009]

Also coming a SL version of the Fantom 29er PRO – which will be XTR/XT, Juicy Seven, and Reba etc

our current line of 3 29ers will expand to six models by middle of 2009

Mike at moto:

I just picked up a Fantom 29er and love it. I’m thinking about picking up a full suspension as well, like the Moto Trail DS. But if a 29er full suspension is in the works, I’d rather go that route. Any inside information?

thanks
