But it doesn't come with 700C's!
I like that one too, but I probably won't have it.

Dammit, that's the right size, but I have neither the money (yet) nor the doctor's permission to ride it as it should be ridden. Originally Posted by karma

Bag what the hell do you need a 6pack for?? Thought you had the hots for the Highline...
And IMO the Nomad is the most over-hyped bike this year. And talk about a serious threat to your junk with that bar hump!

I agree with the first sentence... Regarding the second, do you ride on or near your handlebars? Originally Posted by Particle

Indeed, that's part of the issue. Right now, it's hard to tell whether it is purly hype or whether the bike can back it up. There just aren't that many of them out there and those that are haven't been for long. Originally Posted by Particle

Also, I've heard a significant amount of rumbling about the long chainstays on the nomad. Conventional wisdom is that longer chainstays contribute to improved downhill stability, but reduce the quickness in tight twisty's and climbing.
I get to wait before I'm buying anything anyways so I'll be observing and dreaming until then."if the city is visibly one of humankind's greatest achievements, its uncontrolled evolution also can lead to desecration of both nature and the human spirit."

Evidently Lenz is selling quite a few Leviathans (their 3" 29er). The bike pictured is the 5" Behemoth. It's the longest travel 29er out there aside from some prototypes and one-offs. I'd buy one if I had $2000 for a frame and another $1500 to build it up.

How many people talking shit about the Nomad have ridden one beyond a parking lot?
It's heartbreaking to see a chick who's too anorexic.
