scotty Posted March 31, 2014 Share Yes, while i also have 29" i love riding my 26", it's my fun bike and I also find it more nifty on single track and twisty bits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greybeard Posted March 31, 2014 Share Hi Slowbee. I did create a poll. 80% of the 135 votes still ride 26ers. I was wondering if the cycling community has given up on 26ers. All i hear at bike shops are that they only sell 29ers and 650 b bikes. As i said, no disrespect to anybodys wheel chioce. Thanks for taking part. And yes, i ride a 26 er.I have said it before, 26'ers will be around for a long time to come. For tires,tubes and other specific parts there are bargains to be had. I buy consumables like tires at half or one third the cost of 29'ers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jugheaddave Posted March 31, 2014 Share At 6ft and a bit; I feel way to tall for a 26er!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockCoach Posted March 31, 2014 Share Yes. There are 7x 26" in the family. 5 of which are ridden regularly. A few other sizes in there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichieT Posted March 31, 2014 Share Yes X2, but thinking of a 650B Anthem to replace my 26" Anthem, don't know why.. need to try one first, and there's no rush Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichieT Posted March 31, 2014 Share One of the big issues is that all your 26" specific spares become redundant... wheels, tyres etc, so there's got to be a very good reason to make the change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fruity Posted March 31, 2014 Share Yup.. started on a 26er about 6 years ago, then went to a 29er about 2 years ago.. then about a year ago, sold the 29er for another 26er. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rotiringer Posted March 31, 2014 Share Train on a 26 and race on a 29 - getting on the 29 just feels so good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichieT Posted March 31, 2014 Share Haha. Hahahahaha! Bwahahahahahaha! Tell that to mavic, RS, suntour etc. Sure they'd love to hear your opinion. Actually I'm happy! You can buy 26" wheels at very good prices these days... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
