Hairy Posted October 22, 2013 Share Exactly! Far more important to bear in mind is the head angle and top tube and chainstay arrangement. Not to mention the wheelbase!And colour ... bezerker green is so much faster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iwan Kemp Posted October 22, 2013 Share if the 130mm 650b is the new 150mm 26, does this mean the 130mm 29 is the new 170mm 26?You're giving me an ice-cream headache! That is just about PYGA 29'er dually territory with a 140mm fork slapped up frontYip. But with a frame that's 1kg lighter! Everyone knows that Vitamin P is the fastest colour Reverse Vitamin-P is the new go-to color! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iwan Kemp Posted October 22, 2013 Share I'd say the equivalency ratio is around 10% for 650 and 20% for 29. So the 650 would be like a 140/145mm and the 29 would be like a 155mm 26r There's a bit of that when JRA. Riding over roots and ruts, ploughing through rock gardens. But when you do drop-offs, jumps, gaps, hucks and being all "flickable" then 100mm is 100mm is 100mm.
