I think it's poor old Burry badly photoshopped.

 

The SpecialIzed engineers would never run a fork at that angle :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

What a stupid picture.

 

Made a mistake, its Yolande Speedy on that prototype

 

Somebody commented that the fork has no travel. If a twenty naainer rolls over anything that 37.2 incher will not even need suspension.

That 37.2 is a pot *** .. Will never work

Rumour has it that the higher volume tyres are specifically designed to be filled with helium which will allow for more "float" and enable you to glide over obstacles even more easily...

Shite! I have ordered a 2012 Scalpel 29er - now means I will have to sell it at like 50% off, cos I have to have the latest "thing" to match my white bibs...

I have heard rumors that after 29ers the next big thing will be a 27.5 inch mtb, or 650 (using same size wheels as 650 road). It will probably be marketed as the "perfect" mtb with the best combination of 26 and 29er qualities.

 

I think the bike companies will wait a bit before going big on this - perhaps a year or 2 till 29er sales level out.

 

Google "27.5 inch mountain bike" for info.

Yeah? That's nothing - here's me coming back from the Spruit this morning on my new creation (tho' it does remind me of an older idea ;-))

You guys are all smoking something.

 

That's *clearly* Emily Batty, the wheels just look so big because she's so small. It's a 26er in actual fact, no doubt.

It looks like one of those "angled" trick shots to me.

 

I reckon they put Andrew Mclean on a 26er and rigged the shot...

 

 

That is not Andrew it looks more like Kevin Evans
