I think that it should fit you fine.
Come down if you would like to come spin it around. I think that you will be surprised how smooth a 29er can be. Suspension is almost overkill.

I assume you would recommend the 29er over the 26 even for someone as vertically challenged as myself?
I guess it ultimately comes down to feel. I may take you up on your offer for a test ride.
Sparta Brad said:Ok, I will pass then on the Bianche and keep my eyes open for a 29er.

No need for suspension, the wheels and the steel smooth everything out, it climbs better than any bike I have ridden and is just a joy to ride. I have been through 7 bikes in four years and the Mary is going to stay, best money I've spent by far.

jdog said:Hey Walt,
Glad to see that you are still digging the Mary.
Have you done any work to it?? Have you been happy with the stock setup?
Gearing??
I have sold a few guys Easton Carbon Bars and posts. This gives a big weight savings and ride comfort seems to be better.
