I put thousands of miles on a 57cm Vaya. Sold it, regretted selling it, and am now building up a 56cm Vaya (which should fit even better). Great bikes. Don't worry about the 26" wheels. On the smaller sizes they make a…
Just received my 32mm samples. Looking forward to the added traction and cushion.
I posted my review of the H-Bar, which you can read here . Here's the latest incarnation (brakes, shifters) on my 29er:
