XTERRA South Africa

If you dont know it yet, I LOVE 29ers!   (29er = Big wheels)

– Handles rocky, sandy, bumpy terrain better than 26inch.

-Larger contact patch= better traction.

– More comfortable.

– Better rolling.

– Keeps momentum.

Sure, the bike weighs a bit more, but we’re* working on it…

* Specialized.

My dad, (also 6ft3) has this saying- “A good tall man will always be better than a good small man.”

I feel the same about bike wheels. And I agree with my dads saying, of course.
