That pie should've been 27.5" diameter, lol!

I don't believe the wheel size is hype, I just would like to see who wins when they're all on equal equipment. Myself, I'm pulling for 26" to take it! Should be good to watch the race

Results: World Championships Timed Training
Part of me is thinking it would be nice to see a wheel/bike standard implemented for this race. Only because I want to see the best man win, which usually there would be any given 5 or so guys that would take it. Now, with a 29er in the mix, if it won, or even got top 10, I'm skeptical of the man/machine mix. I'll just say it...if Mitch wins, in my eyes, his bike won. And I won't have seen a fair, even race. There's a reason for implementing standards against blatant advantages in racing, so you see the best man win.

Kona Factory Team Australia at Thredbo - National Series Round 2
Good to see Sam take another :)
Also, it would be nice to see Kona retire that orange and blue jersey from the mid-90's :/

A Look Inside Trek HQ - Photo Tour
They've been trying 29" for dh for a while now (Intense did it for sure). That was a few years ago now and if it would have been a better application for dh, then they would've pursued it. Since they haven't, nor any others (companies and riders), that tells me they prefer 26" for dh. Mind you I'm ALL for advancement in products and innovative ideas. I'm surprised Trek is this late in the game for trying 29" dh. BTW, a certain Brendan Fairclough specifically said 'I'll quit dh if it goes to 29" and just ride motocross'. If that doesn't tell you something, I don't know what will.

It's a marzocchi drop crown. They have a different bolt pattern than the Rocksox crowns, which is why it needs a marzocchi direct mount stem.
