26in

26 in wheels are the most popular tire size world wide for 100 years......you also have the widest selection of tires available.....and way cheaper.........26 in wheels are stronger and lighter because they are slightly smaller.....you produce more torque on a smaller wheel......you can have just as much fun as on any other tire............it takes a more skilled rider to roll on 26s dude........bigger tires might give a advantage if you were competing with pro racers........but if youre that good someone will buy you a 29er and pay you to race it..........
