Animation 29" vs. 26" Mountainbike

Hier sehen wir den Unterschied zwischen einem Mountainbike mit 26" und einem mit 29" Rädern.
Wie die Animation verdeutlicht, bieten die größeren Räder zweierlei Vorteile:

1. sie sinken durch den größ

Make it like off-road motorcycles. 29er in the front, 26 in the rear. It will rode easier and will acelerate like a 26.

@Idonteatdog That is actually not a bad idea. The thing is that you can not simply stick two different wheels on. You need a frame that has an adapted geometry. We, and as I know others, have played around with such setups on fullsuspension bikes - what will actually become available to the public is yet to be seen.

There are tons of different 29er rigs, some work, some don't. We took great care to develop a frame platform that utilizes all the benefits of bigger wheels without compromising ride quality. You might want to check out twentynineinches website for a long-term-review of our Bergamont Revox Team.

Ist schon erschreckend, wenn die Hersteller Überzeugungsvideos hochladen müssen, nur um sinnlose Dinge zu vermarkten!!

TwentyNEIN!!!

[bergamont]

@Chorge1972 Na der Kritikpunkt hinkt dann doch gewaltig. Ich erinnere mich noch an die Anfänge der Downhill-Bikes, da mussten sich die Hersteller ganz schön was anhören, dass man mit so einem Bike gar nicht mehr den Berg hoch kommt. Heute ist dieses Segment absolut etabliert, nicht zuletzt weil die Hersteller ihre Überzeugung von guten Produkten verbreitet haben.

PS

Props für das intelligente Wortspiel, auch wenn wir da nicht einer Meinung sind.

26 FOREWER

I don't believe it. This is marketing. 29ers are dead. Now it's 27.5ers era. Then will die soon. Only 26er will remain.

[Idonteatdog]

@KevinNeidorf I think the 29er simply roll better when you are descending in a rocky section. The 26 acelerates better and I guess it climbs better too. But the 29er will be a pain in the ass in a fast descending singletrack or a curvy downhill section.

[Idonteatdog]

Exactly. With the adequate geometry, it will blend.

hahahahaha thats hilarious

[KevinNeidorf]

What about cornering? This is kinda biased, cause what you may loose with your less angle of attack, you gain on the corners with a 26. If you aren't able to ride over a small block like that on a 26', you don't deserve to ride either of the two.

@Esquiador2011 Have you tried one?

[Mattisaacs6516]

@labradorsin I agree, they should never improve anything. My 30 year old car is way better than my 2012. you nailed it, keep up the great responses.

[Mattisaacs6516]

@labradorsin Road bikes are 700c (basically a 29er). But I do believe you "don't get it"
