Soul Cycles, whose lone 29″er offering has been the Dillinger hard tail, (which we have in the past and are testing now), has announced that the newest 29″er in the range has been put into production. The “Vegas” full suspension bike has been a rumored product for a couple of years, but it looks as though it is headed for reality now.

The design will be a 5.5 inch single pivot type design that features a low leverage ratio travel, will be Hammerschmidt compatible, have front derailleur routing, 10 and 12mm rear axle options, iGlide based scissor link, and will be fabricated from an Easton FS RAD tube set. The scissors linkage will help stabilize the swing arm laterally. All pivots for the scissor link will rotate on Igus “iGlide” bushings. The frames are said to be coming by early summer. Soul Cycles estimates that the price of a frame set with a Fox Shox RP-23 rear damper will come in at a sub-$1000.00 MSRP. No word on what the final geometry of the frame is as of now.

Stay tuned for any further developments.
