29 or 27.5?

Lucky guy..

I'm Bi-pedal

I don't ride MTB so I can't give an opinion but I do build wheels.  I haven't built a 650B for quite a while now and 29" way more in demand.  Maybe 30 to 1?  I would stick to 29" because of the availability of tires.

What kind of riding do you do most often?

 

Problem is - if one has been riding a 29er is one able to ride anything else.

Dude, why not just start a thread explaining what kind of riding you do, what you deem important for your bike to have and then any other background information we may need to help you and ask....

 

This posting a stupid question after a stupid question with no background information is not going to help your cause at all...

i guess it is good to describe myself and my riding!  i'm 6' tall, 220lb, pretty strong.  i do all different kinds of riding, so i need a bike that can handle tough mountains and downhill too.  so far, i'm pretty happy with my 29, so maybe i'll take the advice not to switch it out.

OK ! .So you are 6. foot tall  and weigh 100kg .You need all the traction you can get front and rear .29er for sure 

[Beast Tech]

Thanks, I would say if you happy go 29", if you see yourself starting to go more downhill than uphill and in the more technical route then there may be an argument for a strong 27.5

i know it's stupid, but i'm looking for feedback..29 or 27,5? i'll eventually buy a new bike, and i've gotten used to 29.

What about the new rage....27.5+

do you break or buckle wheels often?

Same guy whose previous thread was simply 'full suss or hardtail'.

No other details given, he isn't big on details.

 

Seems to come up with a new topic as the momentum of the previous one dies down...
