I'm calling bullshit on that.
Fear not, you'll look redonkulous no matter what your riding!
I bought a 29'er
- Thread starter kickstand
- Start date
Why bullshit? Not a believer in physics and SCIENCE? And yeah...you're right.
Cos I've seen shorter racers than you get faster on 29ers than their old smaller wheeled bikes.
True science says you are wrong. Because it is a scientific FACT that there isnt enough money in my wallet to support or maintain another bike in my garage...couple that with my wife not allowing it, and I cant get a 29er.
Now that's bullshit unamerican socialist science/facts and I won't hear of it..... Anyone would think you'd learnt from the subprime fiasco or summat.
Moar debt, moar!!!!!
Come on JohnE, rampant consumerist excess and living beyond your means is the only right thinking persons course of action at a time like this.
Ps having kidneys is over rated, you know what you have to do.
Of course...I must have been swept up in a tide of responsibility and anti consumerism, along with some keep the wife happyosityness.
Know where I can buy more time to ride bikes?.

Hmmm...unlimited supply of chamois butter included?
No idea, but I'm sure Damo has plenty of normal butter?
OP, replace it with 700C and I add you on friend list 
road bikes are awesome!!

I have a road bike, I put about 100 miles a year on it, it's miserably boring.OP, replace it with 700C and I add you on friend list

thats why you should stick to 26" for gravity oriented activities 
on road bike it is fun also when you go downhill at 70km/h and making a corner on tiny 23c tires
on road bike it is fun also when you go downhill at 70km/h and making a corner on tiny 23c tires
I don't know how fast 70kmh is, I ride miles per hour. It can't be converted.
There is a hill near my house that I can hit 40-45mph on the regular.
I have tiny 23c tires, they go flat a lot.
I still have a 26" DH bike for gravity activities....
I'm confused

I'm not very serious..
any bike is fine so long you have fun, you know..heck i would have 20 bikes if i could.
however, riding a cheap road bike kills 'fun' factor, you get a good steel frame for 5000$. Difference between road (CX) and 29er is ability to take FAT tires.

But, I am serious when I say I would ride her bicycle.
My road bike is decent, I just find road miles to be boring.
i wont deny that downhill is more fun than road. Sometimes I ride 700c 23c on gravel road slightly pointed down.
