Is this all marketing hype, or will 29" wheels actually make you faster?
I'm interested in A-B comparisions over a timed course.



My brother bought a 29er a few months ago. he loves it. he also 'seems'
faster....he can certainly make rooty climbs better that i can (back wheel
stays planted better). parts, tubes, etc are hard to come by, however. i'm
going to wait to see if it outlives the hype.
