So, did plow king show up again, or gone like the wind.
If he comes back tell him that 26r is still cool, always will be. And I came into the mtb game after 26 died. Actually it seems like I made it cool.
If I'm not in the air, 26 can get fucked! Oh also if I try and pedal fast up a hill just for a bit, because it does accelerate very fast, otherwise, GTFO! Oh and really long wheelies up fire trails, but that's it.
Being non cynical and actually comparing, other than being able to throw the thing in the air the other things were such a tiny difference to 27.5 thinking about the wheels only, and things have come so far since the last 26ers on the rest I couldn't go back. It's pure novelty value to me now, which is valuable but not enough to ride one all the time.
