Advice 29er or 650b?


Tomj

Recommended Posts

Had a dual Susser carbon 26r,tried some 27.5 wheels on it and could feel a difference,but it wasn't huge. Then tried a 29r and not a carbon,I was quicker almost straight away. So bought a 29 dual susser, Now I have done some Km's on it I know for me it was with out any doubt the best decision I made. Very happy and wouldn't change it at all. Just my opinion :-)

Last year the classifieds were flooded with 26ers at bargain prices.

 

Watch the classifieds from August/September when the 27.5's are released.You'll get a few 29ers at bargain prices.

You guys aren't helping. I'm trying to decide between an a Trance X2 650b and a Silverback Sprada 1......

Both great bikes, but I think the Giant JUST sneaks it..

Can't help you there. I ended up with the Speshy Epic Elite... it has blown me away.
