MTB vs 36“ Wheel Bike | Are Bigger Wheels The Future Of Mountain Biking?
Mountain bike wheels have been rapidly growing in size since the dawn of the sport. Not too long ago we were racing 26“ wheels on downhill bikes and thought they were the fastest option. The argument now is 27.5“ or 29“ wheels or even a mix of both! Blake thought he’d throw another contender into the ring, a monster 36“. Is this the future of mountain biking or a step too far?
