Prepare for the 650b Wheel-Size Revolution
No sense in Dean starting any Enduro/Trail/AM bike thread. Kenny P just destroyed it.
That is a beautiful bike.
Didn't trust the 1*11 hype about the chainrings?
That is a beautiful bike by the way, but i'm sure you know that already.
Bike Porn…

Are there any frames out there that are designed to work as either 26er or 650b. I know there are 26er frames that just so happen to have enough clearance for a 650b wheel and tire but what about something that's geometry is optimized to work well with both. Or something that has adjustable dropouts maybe.
The new Banshee Rune and Spitfire are designed to work with both wheel platforms by utilizing swappable rear end dropout 'chips'.

Pretty cool, eh?
I have a Prime with the new suspension design, and I think it's swell.

Interesting. I was kind of "off" Banshee with all those bushings issues they took an eternity to resolve but I imagine the new ones will be solid.
Cheers and reps to ya!
As far as that Rocky above, I was going to post a thread asking what bikes will look like in 5 years…I think that answers the question right there. The weight too…jesus. Is 25lbs going to be the new 30lbs?
:drool:
Wrong. Always.
The Intense Carbine as well…
Yeah…I saw that somewhere. Did some searching after I posted the question and Intense was the first thing I saw.
Wrong. Always.
that's hot. geometry?
