Default 29" or 36" with Schlumpf Hub?


It seems pretty clear that a geared 36 is faster in most race conditions
than a geared 29.

But the reality is, the rider is more important than the uni, and a
geared 29er is plenty fast. If you're going to be doing a significant
amount of riding off-road, I think a geared 29er is the ideal setup; it
has the ability to do decently technical stuff, is as fast as you'd ever
want to be off-road, and still can move fast on roads.
