Hey guys I am currently in the market for a full suspension 29er. I have looked around and ridden a few different bikes but really just looking for some guidance from some seasoned bike ppl. Any and all help would be great. This will be my do it all bike that I plan on keeping for some time to come.

Price range?
I'll just throw this out there - We just received our 2012 Rocky Mountain Element 930 bikes in the shop. At $2200ish they're a great value in my opinion. What immediately grabbed me was the length of the chainstays. At 17.5" for a medium, they're as tight as many hard tails. Overall, the bike rides great.
We've also got a couple 2011 Giant Anthem X29ers on sale, so let me know if you don't find anything.

I chose the Rumblefish from Gary Fisher/Trek. Test ride a bunch of different bikes.
Looks like Trek will be in your area next Sat. 19 Nov.

Specialized Stumpjumper 29. Amazing bike and most areas have Specialized stores so support for parts is easy.
