26" Full Suspension VS 29er Hardtail - 26 versus 29 inch Wheels
bicycles reviews | bicycles videos | bicycles online
Comparing my 2 XC mountain bikes to see which one comes out on top! Would have liked to have ridden aggressive trails, but for the purpose of the video, I hit my local (smooth) trails back to back on each bike within a few days of each other. 26" vs 29" Which is better?

Ok, so from experience, the 26 is a lot more smoother, but the 29er is so much faster because of the momentum of the big wheels

Agggggh bring back the 26" HT!!!!!! those type of trails are much more fun on 26" HT. I would even try them on fully rigid too to tighten up my line choice and get maximum adrenaline. i don't care if the 29er is faster I will have way more fun and end up a better rider.

if you're riding packed trails sure. anything else get a 27.5 or better yet a 26. I've had to true my 29er almost every time I ride they're weak as fuck you can't even Ho across a 6ft wide stream without fucking it up. they should have at least 48 spokes.

song name please?

Why do they insinuate the front rider of the right video is recording the footage on the left? At 0:28 you will shortly see a guy wearing a white shirt, jogging past both riders, however, the jogger never appears in the left video, meaning it was recorded at a completely different time... so why even HAVE the guy in front on the right video at all, making it appear these are 2 angles of the same moment?

Obviously the 29er would win on a straighter trail like this one. 26er offers better maneuverability in tight corners while 29er is better for traction and momentum. I personally find that both wheel bases are good and the better one depends on the rider and types of trails they ride

Excellent work. I am curious, what if both bikes were hard tail?

Gonna hold out for the 30er
