Sorry, no idea why Flickr keeps on double posting my pics!
great bike collectionI have riden 27.5 and 29 MTBs but I haven't found the nervosity and the sensations I have on my 26 inch rimmed MTBs ​​​​​​. Last time on my local trail I was faster than ​anyone with 29 inch or 27inch rimmed MTBs also I don't do disk brakes. I also ride large frames from 19 to 21 inches. I am thinking about adding a Specialized Stump Jumper frame in a big size since the Trek 8000 in ZR9000 isn't available in large sizes and the SLR 6500 and 6700, I already have two big sized bikes but I don't have anymore room or again another MTB .
