29-inch mountain bikes are built for riders who want extra speed, stability and confidence on rough terrain. With larger wheels that smooth out bumps and carry momentum, 29ers shine on technical climbs, flowing singletrack and fast descents.
Why choose a 29er MTB?
If you love covering ground quickly or riding varied terrain, a 29-inch bike helps you stay composed and efficient. Their taller wheels boost traction and roll-over, making them ideal for trail riding, marathon XC, and big-mountain days. Riders who want something more playful may prefer our 27.5-inch MTBs, while gravity-focused riders often explore Enduro MTBs.
Key things to think about
- Wheel size benefits — improved stability, traction and roll-over compared to smaller wheels.
- Geometry and suspension travel suited to your riding style, from XC to enduro.
- Fit and frame sizing — 29ers often feel roomier and more stable at speed.
