A nice surprise in the mail
Got home after a very ordinary day at work, and look what was waiting for me 
'Tis a Spot Rocker 29er belt drive single-speed. First time for me on both a 29er and a singlespeed.
The weather looks promising for the weekend, although unfortunately the Dam is probably still going to be too wet. Once I've had a couple of rides by myself to get used to the thing, I'll probably organise a Show and Tell ride for those who might be interested. 
The wife wasn't too impressed by the surprise, though, but the tone in the house brightened when I said it wasn't a permanent addition, it was on loan for a few weeks only for a review article. So, lads, don't do what I did. Make sure you keep the Minister for Finance in the loop!

Wouldnt mind getting one of those in the mail.... Sure that would be a lotta fun! Look's awesome too
How long have you got it for?
subject to weather / trail conditions possibly getting in the way of doing the review.
The distributor hinted it might be for sale at a really good price after I'm done. That's open to anyone who might be interested.
Doubt I'd get ministerial approval - it's not in the budget and something else would have to go.
Damn postman, bringing work home for you, that must suck!
would be interested in hearing the price as I'm in the market for buying a new bike and I'm looking at a 29er. Haven't looked into single speed so far, but that could be considered. Hope yo be able to come around for the test ride..
and I might like it a bit better & I have had too many white bikes lately
Blasphemy!
Look forward to reading your review hawkeye.
she's a beaut. I ride a 29 white fisher...
You know what they say, once you've had a 29, you never go back...
I'm in the market for one of those. I got onto spot, they put me in contact with the local distributor, he has sorted out a very very very competitive price. I'll have one by the beginning of summer.
Put spot rocker into a search engine - results ... startling, to say the least - don't look for images!?!
Refresh, you are not trading again are you???

No, not trading, adding. Not getting rid of the niner at all, I love that bike. Given advancing years, I think i need a geared bike as well as an sser.
