Yeah, the 29″ is the Olympic winning bike, but better…

well designed and made carbon hardtail 29ers are the bomb!

talking carbon hardtails could you snoop about and see if there will be a range of sizes comming for the Orbea Alma?

with the Alma restricted to only a medium size a lot of folk end up migrating to the superb Superfly.

It’s a bit of cruelty by Orbea as the Alma frame is the base of the fastest, smoothest and best climbing hardtail I have ever ridden.

I just got an 09 Superfly and it rocks It is super stiff at the bottom bracket and headset. No lateral flex. It steers quicker than my 08 aluminum Fisher 29. A little more standover height is welcome too. This bike kicks ass. The only complaint is the awful baby blue color from my 2000 Mt. Tam has returned to haunt me…
