What a crazy idea; try a bunch of bikes and use the one that suits your
riding. Most trial events are won on 24″ wheels although there are lots of 26″
trial bikes; no conspiracy theory. Also dirt jumper bikes are 26″ wheels, but
in a park there could be more BMX style bikes with 20″ or 24″, still no
conspiracy. But I go < 1/2 the speed of a DH World cup racer, and I like
26" wheels on my DH bike. And on the old school trails on the North Shore, I
like a 26" wheels on my AM bike (it has modern Geo top of line everything),
but am open to 650b.
