I've been thinking pretty hard about one of those 650B bikes. I'm looking forward to your impressions as you get to know it. A 29er is just too much bike for me (and I realize that won't make sense to a lot of people). Granted, I've only tooled around a little bit on one (29er), so my opinion might be premature. Anyhoo, enjoy it and let us know what you think over time! :-D
