Jeff Steber posted up some prototype shots of a 29er downhill bike he is calling the 2951.

“This is just a test project at this point & hope to get some team riders on real tracks in near future. With a little help from Manitou / Sun & WTB we have the “2951″

This first proto is in the medium range 23.5 effective tt.
G3 dropout & Head tube
14″ bb in middle, w 64.5 ha @ 0

Will it see production?  Is there a place for 29er DH bikes in the future? See more on the Intense Forum.

    Don’t know when I’ve ever said to myself while riding DH, “I wish I had bigger wheels right now.”

  • looks smooth. I like how they have kept the geo close to a 26DH bike.This should ride really great on a fast flowy wide open trail with lots of rocks jumps and drops.

  • now this should be interesting………

  • If there is not way to stop this trend they should have their own races,we have enough trouble with 9ers on xc races,now dh?
