29er for teh time trail win!

"He also made an interesting equipment choice - a Gary Fisher 29er with a single chain ring. "The 29er was definitely the right choice. There were a bunch of difficult, drifty corners where you could get into a lot of trouble, but I was able to do some two-wheel drifts," he explained. "It also smoothed out the rough trail sections, especially on the climb. I did blow one corner, and hit a cactus but, all things considered, it was a clean run.""

Irmiger on big wheels was 8th in the women's xc



When I last spoke to the Kona mechanic he said both Wicks and Trebon plan to run 29ers at some point this year. I'm hearing lots of other little rumblings too at the pro level.
