Someone on MTBR summed this up brilliantly for me.
'wow look at those fecking cool big 29er wheels.......bit too big maybe.......I'm not sure.....26" is perhaps boring or outdated.........oh a fence sitter option....yes please'
Its no wonder the industry loves them.
26 v 29 is hardly a massive difference. The pros and cons of each even out. Why we need a middle option is beyond me.
(I'm only bitter cuz the industry should be investing producing cheaper fat components)
