Thinking aloud, I guess there is no front der. to rub on, but are there other limitations?

Thanks for the clarification. I totally agree with you. One of the frames I own had an ebb and full cable stops for gearing. I love the bike greatly but would love it even more if it were ss or gearded only. Actually, ss only for me on this frame. At first I thought you wanted a ss frame without sliders or ebb or cable stops. I do believe there is a place for such versitle frames but I would like to see more that are specific to one or the other. I really like the ss frames with the ebb's and a replaceable hanger so you could run full housing and 1x9 it if one chooses but that's about all I want to have for options. Ok.

For example, I'd love to see what could be done with a production steel geared only frame. What kind of weights it would save. It just seems the 29er movement is way past the point of "we're not sure what kind of rider we're selling to, so let's make a frame that does everything OK but nothing great". These companies can afford to go out on a limb a bit now. That said, I'm not writing this to bash anyone or anything so I hope I don't get flamed to death. Captain,
