    Isn't that the new marketing term for a hybrid?

    Slightly different in the wheel department, I believe - rims/tyres
    aren't interchangeable with their 700c cousins. As for the original
    poster's question, I'd suggest maybe either Bike Dock in Northern
    Ireland or Merlin in Lancashire, as their ranges seem to carry a heavy
    bias towards MTB stuff, though I don't know if 29" MTBs have made much
    of an impact on the market this side of the Atlantic. As a last resort,
    Gary Fisher certainly do 29" bikes, so maybe contacting their UK
    importer might be worth a shot re. suggested retailers?

    No, it's a marketing term for a mountain bike with 700c wheels. I'm not
    persuaded that there's any great benefit to them, but such things do
    exist.

    a 29"er begins
