Are you still riding your Taniwha in this configuration? What's your long-term review? Mine is set up with a 160 DP Pike but I also sometimes run it with a 180 DP Lyrik... Descends great this way, but definitely wanders on the climbs. I've definitely thought that a 29er front end, at 160 or maybe even 150 would be fun to mess around with. Maybe even with the shorter "Trail" rear end.
