THE REASON I FEAL BEING POWERED BY 29 INCH WHEELS IS FOR ME

• Faster rolling. Once you get them rolling they roll fast and long.
• Less resistance. When the tire contacts an object, the angle is less rolling smoother.
• More tire to ground contact. This aids in soft sand, soil...etc. helping the bike float. Also giving the bike more traction in cornering.
• Longer spokes. Giving the wheel a bit more flex acting as sort of suspension.
• Bigger wheels and frame. Putting the bike to scale for taller riders.
