Why are singlespeed mtb's so damn expensive? I got nothing against paying for a quality bike, but all mountain bike singlespeeds offered direct seemed to be overpriced. Just my .02.
The RIG is sweet, and I'd like to have one, but $1500+?! Looks like I'll just have to convert my old Fisher instead.
3 weeks after buying the RIG, I taco'd the rear wheel doing my usual urban assaults, I'm having custom wheel built right now with Velocity BLUNT 36h rims, White Industry hubs, Wheelsmith spokes riding on Schwalbe Big Apple tires. We shall see.
I just got my 1st 29er last week. Gary Fisher Cobia. Awesome ride. I don't know what the advantages of a single speed are but it seems pretty popular with folks.
I chose to have some gears though I find myself in the same gear for 90% of my riding with this bike.
This video is sweet I'm picking this bike up tomorrow and the fact that somebody alreay made a video with a gary fisher 29er and it happens to be the model I'm getting tells me this is a good bike! Thanks
sweet vid!!! I have been considering a new 29'er or perhaps a 26 inch but I think this sold me... any bike that has a metallica song in the background with it is a bike i wanna ride!!!!
Please put some music back in the video.
Youtube took off your song.

So far, I love the feel of the bike.

She's a beauty. Fisher really does own when it comes to the 29er.
Can't wait for the new HiFi to come out so I can go look at it in the shop and wish I could afford it.
