Since most of our bikes (my wife`s and mine) are mountain bike based, I`m sticking with 26 inchers simply because it makes mix and match so easy. If I had a shed full of 700 or 27" shod bikes, I`d look for that size in my next purchase.
Close.
The current Safari uses 26" wheels for the smaller frames, 29" wheels for the larger ones. I think you're correct about the older ones, but I'm not certain.
