26 ain't dead - ARRRGH but 32 is ALIVE - the FrankenHoop now rolling near you ....

Those 36ers look scary, not much free space between tyre and crotch when hanging off the back on a rocky descent.

Now that’s a thought - one of the big issues in the modern mayhem we call mountain biking is the poor technique which results in front end ejection because you’ve stopped the rear wheel with your arse - tyre buzz can affect us all on a bad day - mullets have reduced this risk nicely - but the 32 and 36 are going to be an arse buzz waiting to happen....

We only had to hang off the back because of small wheels and crap geometry

(I’m logging off now before the regulars implode )

yep - I hang off the back due to bad habits....

So do I. Don’t realise how much until I started wearing a fanny pack. Keep buzzing it.

I hang off the back because I think it makes me look rad, but mostly it's because I refuse to buy a dropper post

36/24 ultramullet inbound, rear end is strong and whippable, front end is huge and rolls over anything, the future of downhill biking is here
