I own the RIG. I absolutely love my Schwalbe Big Apples.

I sold my Reba shock. I'm running full rigid. I run the tires pretty hard (65lbs). Sometimes they're a little annoying keeping that weight rolling, but man, I beat the ever living shit out of them (4ft parking lot transitions, steps, rocks...best set-up ever.

@Luvanicebum what bike do you have? i am ordering a trek cobia 2011 and want to know if the frame & fork clearance + rims can safely handle a big apple 29 x 60 mm without chain stay rubbing, hitting the granny gear, or chain suck. otherwise i'll have to stick with 50 mm.

seems that a single speed would really wear you out on hills

very cool.. Just ordered this bike last week.. got it for 999.00 out the door. Gary Fisher said it was the last XL of this model in the country.. whew..

[Luvanicebum]

Great price, but wheels and components need upgrading.

I taco'd the rear wheel 3 weeks after buying.

New Velocity Blunt 36h rims, White Industry 36h hubs and Schwalbe Big Apple tires coming soon.

nice bike and cool song. who does it?

[iWannaGoMTB]

Haha, ok this is too ironic, I bike every week at loch raven (usually on saturdays but occasionally tues. and thurs. nights) and I and about 3 other friends just bought rigs. This will certainly be awkward if we ever meet on the trail.

what's the song???

[bmcub]

what made you to get a single speed... i amthinking to get a one step from a rig?
