While the internet warriors were tearing apart the industry's movement towards larger wheels, Victor Smith was in the woods using those larger wheels to tear apart his local trails. The guys at
Transition Bikes (
@TransitionBikeCompany ) have since dropped the Covert from their rotation in favor of the new
Giddy Up bikes, but the
Smuggler,
Scout, and
Patrol still boast 29 and 27.5 inch wheels respectively. If you're still a hater of the "
bigger is better" theory despite evidence that 29" and 27.5" wheels can rip up a trail, they've kept 26" wheels in rotation with the
Suppressor.
Anyone know what kit he was wearing?
You keep moaning whilst I'll pop motowhips all over town and overtake cyclists on the hills.

Just kidding, guys go big no matter what they ride!
Big wheels are for sure the faster way to go, but that does'nt mean they are better, just depends on what type of riding you are doing and what you are more comfortable with.
But don't try an tell me they're the best machine for "shredding"
Even they won't tell you that.

thats going mad with 29ers
He doesn't do anything. He just rolls along as docile as can be. Bike riding is supposed to be exciting. Not docile.
dont try and tell me that the biggest wheel they make is the best one for shredding.
If it was they wouldnt also use that size wheel for endurance/xc bikes
And then he'd look like he was having a good time and not like he was driving a bus.
You silly tools.
Great video/trail/rider. Bad edit on a classic AIC song.
