- 650b wheels are ace!
Saw a kid riding a bike today that was far too big for him, you know, the you’ll grow into it/hand me down bike. Thing is, my first thought was, is that a 29er?! 😆
Posted 4 years agosomeone pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease close this thread now..
Posted 4 years agoAs are 26″ and 700c. Not sure about 29″ though, they smell funny
Posted 4 years agototally agree, just got a 650b and am totally sold on it. tried 29, used to ride 26, sorted
Posted 4 years agoI have a riding window tomorrow and can’t decide whether to ride 26″ or 700c. Wtf!
Posted 4 years agoSaw one of them Bronsons in the flesh today. Very tasty indeed.
Posted 4 years ago650b is just a way for the the bike industry to revert to 26″ wheels with fewer blushes.
Posted 4 years agoGot a 26er, got a 29er – currently debating whether to get a 36er.
Posted 4 years agoWas gonna post a clever post on the pointlessness of 650b as a modern standard, but then thought better of it.
Carry on though, by all means! I’m not judging, after all its the marketing men that are driving this standard, not the general buying public actually asking for it…
Posted 4 years agoI’ve changed my mind! 29″ wheels rock. I am no longer sure about 26″ and 650b ones now though…

Thats good, hopefully there wont be a new better standard you like more as you may feel a tool asking the mods to change your username.
Posted 4 years agoWhat wheel size for …….
Posted 4 years agowhen will 750b wheels come out on sale? Or are they 650b2’s? 😆
Posted 4 years ago24″ for me. Just doing the rear wheel slackens the head angle and lowers the bottom bracket as an added bonus 🙂
Posted 4 years agoGuys who are hating I.e Mboy & b45er – just leave it, of course you’re entitled to your opinion but both pointless threads when the OP is obviously chuffed with his new bike/wheels – spread the love of riding
Posted 4 years agoSo good I wrote it twice
