Crank It Cycles

The 29er trend has been slow to take hold in NZ, but more and more are appearing at events and we now have models to suit all budgets and tastes at Crank It Cycles!

In a nutshell, the larger 29er wheel rolls over bumps better for a smoother ride, provides a larger contact patch for greater stability and holds momemtum better to help take the sting out of small sharp rises. To read more about the merits of the 29er design, check out the following:

There's a great video on the Gary Fisher website about why he invented 29ers and it's worth watching past the intro as it explains all the advantages graphically.
