When I read the title, I was expecting the post to just say "inches".

I'm 6' 3" and am committed to my 26er. Just what I'm used to, I would pick up a Tallboy if someone dropped $4K my way!

I'm 6'2" and right there with you on the 26, but I've also only ever owned 26. "29 Essentials..." just seemed a bit convenient.

I've probably watched a half-dozen mountain biking videos on YouTube, visited a half-dozen bike shops and looked at a lot of bike photos online and it's scary how much of that video I got and could relate to!

Very Funny!
My wife would agree with the segment about moving out of the bedroom. While not quite that bad, we're building a new house that has a two car garage for cars and a third, attached garage dedicated to BIKES! Gotta get your priorities in order.
