Just a few days ago we posted a photo of the new Redline Bicycles D-800 series full suspension 29er bikes. During the Outdoor Demo we had a chance to speak with the cool folks of Redline and got a chance to learn more about the D-800. Redline D-800 spec’d with Shimano XT They called this…

Feast your eyes on this big wheeled behemoth. What you are seeing is a 36″ wheeled Keener mountain bike. Here I am standing next to it to show you how big this wheel is. Ya I know I’m not that tall, but still…that wheel is huge! Interbike 2013 Coverage Proudly Sponsored by Black Tiger Jerky
Yes you read it right, FULL SUSPENSION 29er from REDLINE!!!
