I wonder why the bike industry is pushing 27.5 size ??..What's wrong with 26 inch or 700cc ??...To be honest, every time I walk into an LBS all I see is 26 and 700cc/29'er bikes and tires and even department stores carry them.... OTOH, 27.5 seems to be a very small niche market, I don't see them everywhere.
