29er Trail Bike Of The Year

The rear travel is a short but capable 120mm and a 140mm fork handles everything up front.

29er trail bike of the year. A carbon version of this capable 29er trail bike the smuggler dropped this year. There was only one bike in this group test favouring the smaller wheel size the canyon spectral. We declared 27 5 to be dead from frame size medium upwards after our most recent enduro bike group test and we re seeing this development even more clearly on trail bikes. Big 29 wheels with 2 5 tyres smooth out the trail at ground level with 125mm of suspension travel on the rear shock just enough for all round trail riding while keeping the bike nice and.

In the reactor 290c elite nukeproof has delivered a 29er trail bike that easily meets the demands of modern trail riding. For trail bikes 29 is the wheel size of choice. The bike got lighter a little stiffer and a little sexier than the aluminum version. The giant trance 29 2 is another playful trail bike that will have you seeking the fun line at every opportunity.

The carbon smuggler still has the same geo numbers as the aluminum version. To be sure even the best. This is another short travel 29er that has the ability to alter the opinion of the 29er naysayers whose criticisms get quieter every year. This year s class of 29er trail bikes can handle the same rowdy riding as longer travel machines albeit with slightly slower speeds and more careful line choices.
