Since I am recreational only, there is nothing wrong with 26" right? My old old old MTB is 26" of course. but looking to upgrade. Thanks... but after i road my buddies FS29er i was noth sad and jealous. but i still enjoy the old 26 incher... when i find $2000 i dont need for anything else... ill upgrade. |
I can see a return to 26” wheel mtb’s, but not with old bikes or geometry. It probably won’t be mainstream, especially with old people; but I can see kids riding 15+ lb carbon hardtails that can be easily thrown around.
There is something about youth’s disdain for their elders; especially on what can’t be done. John |
