30.5" Wheels to Be Raced at the 2026 Enduro World Championships

I really wonder if any other sport has such frequent significant disruptions as cycling due to equipment "improvements". Looking at the number of comments (mostly negative and eyerolling), indicates that we as a user group are COMPLETELY fed up with another standard (brake mounts, headsets/head tubes, BBs, bar diameter, seatpost diameters, gear numbers, derailleur hangers, shifter pull, hub spacing, cassette drivers, bolt types (hex/torx), chainring mounts, chain brands, quick links, hub spacing...............), but now ANOTHER wheel diameter!! Come on bike manufacturers. This is/has become utter stupidity.

Dean I noticed that you had a Blog and I hit the Submit to PB as I think folks would like to see that you mushed through all that snow on your epic day a few weeks back. Talk to you soon.

Do you know how far the Woodlot parking lot is from Haney Place bus stop? I know it's on 287th.

Before the Excavator I had never been on a Kenda that I liked! Don't both w/ the KOT if you're on the Woodlot a lot, obviously.

Yup, this Enduro should be pretty rad! You asked about tires: Right now I have a 2.35 folding Kenda Excavator on the front which is easily the best all around 2.35 I've ever used. I have a Kenda KOT mud tire on the back right now and its pretty full on. It rolls like ass (the usual trade off eh?) but is quite the tire in the mud/soft dirt. I had one up front but it was far to on/off with its square profile.
