29 inch Hardtail Mountainbikes

What makes the 29 inch hardtail mountain bikes so special?

The 29er Hardtails have meanwhile established themselves completely and win mountainbike- / CC-Worldcups on the line. But what makes these 29" MTB hardtails so special? Now, on the one hand, manufacturers (Cube, Ghost and Scott) are now able to build extremely lightweight, torsion-resistant frames made of aluminium and carbon that can absorb vertical forces without sacrificing rigidity. The large 29-inch wheels ensure extremely smooth running and stability. This is a great advantage especially when descending downhill, as driving safety is significantly improved. Thanks to the large wheels, the speed of these mountain bikes also increases, which is good for racers and touring cyclists alike.

29" - "Sitting in the bike"

The biggest advantage of the 29 inch tyres is that the bottom bracket is lower in relation to the wheel axle. This lowers the centre of gravity and the driver sits "between the wheels", not above. As a result, the front wheel ascends less quickly when driving uphill and downhill, reducing the risk of overturning.

For you the most important advantages of the 29 Hardtails:

• Lighter than Fullys
• smooth running
• Stability
• Faster
• Deep seated bottom bracket
