I get the whole "range of wheel size" thing, companies want to basically sell more stuff, and by opening up the market by introducing new ranges (in this case wheel size) they open up a whole new avenue for profit generation. What really gets to me are the magazines, and to an extent, the companies that sell this stuff.....because whenever a new "format" comes out, it's suddenly "THE BEST BIKE THING EVA"......and they try to push it so far down your throat it hurts. Only yesterday I was reading the latest Dirt mag (no, not porn!) and they were reviewing the new Intense 29er Tracer, and the twat writing the review states at the end that "this bike took rock lines that would make some 26" DH bike cringe"....WTF?!? "some DH bikes" what's he refering to, a Halfords Carrera? If the media and the companies just said something along the lines of, here we have developed a trail bike for "blah" trail and it works best with 650B wheels, or 29er wheels, or 26" wheels, then I wouldn't mind so much, because it really is down to the rider to choose what he wants, but it's so easy to fall into the "marketing trap"........

No Worries dude, enjoy the bikes! And don't forget Cannock Chase :)
