don't see 26inch wheels

This is something I've wondered about. Is there really that much difference between 26" and 27.5"?

(I realise all associated parts are now much harder to find so it's basically a moot question)

I am going to say yes but it's subjective. It's just smoother and I think you can feel the increased contact patch.

I would happily ride a 29 or 27.5 as my main MTB but I wouldn't go back to 26 for general MTB unless I had to. I run Mullet now which is by far my preferred.

Both my DH bikes had 24" wheels as they were Brooklyns.
Now there's a wheel size I wouldn't want to go back to! 😂
