Giant Rincon.Very cheap bike,but it rides well on the tow path.Little story.Not knowing about mtb geometry,i put a couple of questions out on a forum.I got a reply back from a bloke in Australia,i was worried about sizing and looking too big for it.23" frame.The guy and his mate were 6-6 and 6-8 i was a mere midget at 6-4.It's a smashing bike.

So in the end i didn't go with an MTB or even the PX london Road - i went for this instead...................

I already had the Ti frame as i've been using it as my disc road bike, but to me it looks better with chunky tyres and flat bars than it did as a road bike

it's running 1x11 shimano xt 36 - 11/40 with 35mm conti cx cyclo kings

Love this bike, didn't want a 29er but a few people told me I should get one and it was the best move I've made. Just about managed Llandegla without actually falling off and done a few laps of Delamere on it, plus probably a few hundred road miles.

Ooh, that junction looks familiar, but I can't place it - where is it?

It's in Eccleston, near Chester. To the left (looking at the picture) is the road that leads to Eccleston ferry and the River Dee.

Ah yes, thanks! Not been that way in a while - I should do, maybe combine it with a Delamere trip and a ride along the Dee path.
