Sephton Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 Please don't use "er" when referring to 27.5" wheels, it sounds gay so it only suits 29er's

Gonduir Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 Geezzzzzzzz dudeWhat a way to revive a dead thread...
xnadu Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 yes im deceiding what should i buy 27.5" or 29" and i went back in history to see if other dudes had before me the same problem - lol and then i read that duded comment - lol
J∆kk∆ls Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 Sho there was a lot a of violins played on thisthread, but I guess that comes with discussing wheel size...again!!! P.S did you guys see what Shaq is riding, 36"
raptor-22 Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 Indeed, buy the bike that makes you feel most comfortable on the trails you ride often. One wheel is not faster than another if the same power is applied through it through the same drive ratio.
xnadu Posted December 19, 2015 Posted December 19, 2015 Wheel size talk is so yesterday.Perhaps it is but unlike you im still finding my way around the bike
raptor-22 Posted December 19, 2015 Posted December 19, 2015 Then may I suggest you try a brilliant 27.5 like the giant anthem and brilliant 29er like a rocky Mountain element and decide. I chose the anthem. I simply preferred the ride of the smaller wheels across varied terrain and the superior suspension action
xnadu Posted December 19, 2015 Posted December 19, 2015 I do alot of riding on tarr and once in a while on a trail - so is 27.5" still the best for me
RockCoach Posted December 19, 2015 Posted December 19, 2015 I do alot of riding on tarr and once in a while on a trail - so is 27.5" still the best for me No, then you need a road bike or maybe a CX bike.
xnadu Posted December 19, 2015 Posted December 19, 2015 no i want a mountain since i have 110kg to consider and do a bit of riding in the bush/veld and i like the look of a mountain bike
raptor-22 Posted December 19, 2015 Posted December 19, 2015 Wheel size makes no difference. Speed is determined by how hard and fast you can push the pedals to turn the wheels through the gearbox. Wheels size difference between 26 27.5 and 29 makes very little difference when gearing is corrected for the wheel size difference
xnadu Posted December 19, 2015 Posted December 19, 2015 I still have a lot to learn - you will see i will ask alot of " stupid " questions in future but i dont beleive they are stupid cause i dont know the answer to it
