marsbeetle Posted June 27, 2012 Share As long as the rest of the bike is suited to the purpose I don't see any reason why it couldn't fit into any of those markets. The 650B wheel size is probably best suited to the "do anything" market but that doesn't mean it will excel in any of those markets above the other wheel sizes. My 2cents.

banna Posted July 3, 2012 Share Me thinks the longer the travel, the smaller the wheel should be. Just a gut feel, not based on any facts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iwan Kemp Posted July 10, 2012 Share Scott drops 26" from their Genius line. Makes a lot of sense to me http://www.bikeradar.com/mtb/news/article/scott-genius-2013-range-first-look-34489/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DR ◣◢ Posted October 5, 2012 Share Its a wheel. It goes round and round and it's fitted to a bicycle.  You can use it everywhere. Enough now with this wheel size bull***t. Its nothing more than a winky measuring contest anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
