26 Ain’t Dead
I’ve not seen the video but if it’s like other Steel City productions I imagine that it’s very good. It does however seems like a strange stance for Cotic to take.
I ride two bikes: a 2008, 26” hardtail and a 2010, 26” full suss. I have been in not great rush to upgrade from 26” wheels.
Recently, however, my full suspension bike cracked out of warranty. I’ve decided to replace it with a 2014, 650b full suspension. My decision was based on a multitude of reasons but the key thing here was I didn’t choose a 26”.
I imagine that I’m like many other riders in this respect. No rush for change, 26″ is still fun, but when forced to buy a new bike (mine had cracked) I didn’t buy a 26″.
I don’t doubt that Cotic still has customers that buy 26” bikes/ frames but it seems curious that they are, apparently, ignoring potential customers who want a 650b.
