The Mk1 Longitude as above was designed for 29+ish wheels with slacker HT angle, Mk2 was for B+ hoops and more trail ready with suspension corrected forks, still managed to squeeze 29+ though!
Not 100% sure about the Mk3 - afaik they went back to the original design with B+ wheels and slightly steeper angles..?

Tbh for my needs any of them would be absolutely fine. Do like the way the mk2 looks with the 29+ wheels though, makes the back end look slightly less crazy long. That must be good fun to ride. Do + sized tyres not feel incredibly sluggish? Or do you just accept it and pootle? I’ve got limited experience or riding anything larger than road tyres tbh.

These look ace, and so versatile!
I only discovered that genesis made these the other day, just happens to tick every single box for the dad biek that I want to build so I’m on the hunt for a size S!
