I'm sure JD has been here to, but guys our general size who make big 29'ers look like normal bikes don't have much luck with schwalbe, any version, any offering.

I love rons, and ron rear/nic front as a 29er combo, in fact I've not found anything to match it really but my experience says for me they will fail (had 5 all sliced by rock that were not repairable).
(pics for graphic reference, I'm a dentist so I can't show my face...and so some mongrel doesn't post my mug on the next express post bag... Guess this shows one of the reasons I copped snickers as a nickname - 20% more chest)
He is a very versatile unit.Eastie, how many of you are there,
One thinks he is large, the other rides a small tallboy ?
Had the full transplant yesterday. Weighs in at 12.1Kg so not as light as some but I've not gone for super light components.
Took it for the shakedown ride this morning. The shifting is precise with minimal lever movement. I'll be getting in more Ks over the weekend

You can get a problem solvers adapter to run a sham 11x trigger with shimano brakes.Are you happy with the Shifter placement? I am using gripshift on my 11sp XTR, but would like to go to a trigger and the only one that would work is the bar mount like yours. I am worried I will struggle to get it into the right position. Also, be careful of the clamping force you use on those haven bars. I have seen one with some serious creasing and indentation from brake/shifter clamps.
Any detail pics?Pretty damn fine little unit, nice lines, no toe overlap, great handling and fast. The bike is good also.
