GT Sensor 29R expert Yaba daba dooo..!!!!! :)
Today I took out my brand new gt 29r I bought from this site.. As someone else pointed out the sizing if you go by suggested measurements can be off/wrong.
I ordered an XLg since I have a 35" inseam but when I got the xlg it was to tall. I ended up ordering a Lg instead and it is perfect. So going a size down might be a great way right off.
The bike handles the bumps and jumps like a dream compared to my 26" FS. and the double chain ring up front wasn't a problem at all. In fact I was able to take most of the hills in 3rd or even 4th ring on the back vs big gear or #2 ring. It just climbed real easy.
Today was the first time I rode n snow and with the tires that came with the bike I did okay would be nice for a little bit more rubber but go them on the way. But even with the tires the bike just moved. Was awesome.
Suspension was plush and responsive. once I dialed in the forks and shock.
I love the bike and just thought I share the info. Thanks Giantnerd for making it all possible.

29er o Regular 26 Bikes?
I am a new purchaser of a 29r to.. I recently moved up to Mountain biking with a FS 26 after coming from no suspension at all and the 26 FS is awesome but we have lots of roots on the trails and I'm still getting beat up so bought one of these. GTsensor 9R expert in XL.. I have a 35" inseam so hope the XL works.. Currently run a 52CM frame.
