Liv exclusively makes women's bikes, and the Tempt has proportional wheel sizing for better bike fit: 27.5” for XS and S, 29” for S, M, and L. Best for Heavy Riders Zize Bikes Yonder
Schwalbe off-road tires commonly prioritise grip rather than durability, but a few of their touring models work out well for dirt roads. Vittoria makes a few super fast-rolling models that folks are getting great mileage out of, and they come in the new 29 x 2.60″ size too. But first, let’s start with some general tire info.
A 27.5-inch bike is more proportioned for shorter riders and 29-inch wheels for taller riders. Luckily, there is a wide crossover in the middle-from about 5'5" to 6'2" is where a rider can comfortably choose either wheel size. Under 5'5" is generally 27.5 jurisdiction and above 6'2" is fit by 29-inch bikes best.My Megatower is 29" and I love it, but it's also the bike I use much more. Even if I do get a new DH bike, it won't be used as much as the MT - I know that for a fact. So I'm looking at going to a 2018 V10 (XL) frame, swapping my parts over as best as possible, or simply going with a complete 2019 Supreme 29 (L). 29+ is going to be taller and wider than 29. 27.5+ is just a tiny bit smaller than a standard 29. This also all depends on what rims you use. Specialized uses 30mm rims on their 6fattie and gives a narrower more rounded profile. but uses 45mm rims on their Fuse which makes a much wider and squarer tire. tzDfm.
is 29 better than 27.5
