I'm toying with the idea of something new, steel and fully rigid. I've only ever ridden 26" wheeled MTBs and 700c road bikes. I have received a small inheritance in my grandparents will and rather than spend it on day to day nonsense or something like a holiday that only lasts a few weeks, I would like to spend it on something that I can remeber them by fondly each time I ride it. I'm not going to be going out and buying something tomorrow, I'm just looking to get the start of some ideas at the mo.
Some constructive advice would be welcomed. I weigh next to nothing, I don't ride particularly fast, I prefer XC and flowing singletrack, I have no interest in "All Mountain" "Freeride" "Downhilling" or any of that pap. What are the pros and cons of 26" and 29" for me?
Cheers.
