RE: Monstercross Build (Final): Complete project & parts

in Cycling4 months ago

Haha, yes, it's the eternal cycling story, never enough parts and improvements. I would definitely consider 29" wheels. Just because the bike seems to be intended for an off road environment will help it get over obstacles easier and add some comfort. The downside is that it loses a bit of agility. If you have somewhere to borrow a pair wheels - try it if it suits you.

Yup, I'll possibly have to cut off the chainstay reinforcement to fit bigger tires -- won't be an issue because this frame is so over-dimensioned that it's unlikely it'll bend. Perhaps 27,5 with 2.1 tires or 700x42s
