32" Wheels Aren't Going to Save the Bike Industry

BMX bikes reached their technological plateau 10-15 years ago and since then more than half the brands have disappeared, and the ones remaining typically had something unique to offer or just had the best image. The same could said to be happening in the mountain bike industry now, although there's still avenues manufacturers can go down to try and create a new craze to keep the wheels of industry turning, be it 32" wheels, USD forks, suspension layouts etc. This is why the E-bike market is so hot because new, better shit is coming out all the time and it'll be a while before that stagnates.

Bike Check: The CoG Rebel Park Bike Developed by University Students

@concretekahuna: And I bet the people who made those bikes respect the work gone into this. Sometimes you don't have access to all the parts necessary to have a bike dialled before a bike show.
