Which Bike And Wheel Size is Best?
Soho Bikes gathered a “who’s who” of UK downhill and enduro talent (including Rob Warner) and headed over to hit the trails at BikePark Wales to find out which bike and wheel size is best.
- Is a downhill bike faster than a modern enduro bike on a UK downhill track?
- Which wheel size is faster down a UK downhill track; mid travel 29er, 27.5 or 27.5+?
We taped off the most technical downhill track at BikePark Wales and used Action Sport Timing’s race-timing system to gather data from the riders on their different bikes over multiple runs. The timing data showed which bikes were fastest…but the rider discussion and feedback showed that drawing definite conclusions isn’t actually that simple.
Expect some insightful results, provocative opinions and plenty of laughs in the most exciting episode of Soho Bikes TV yet!
