    I accidentally posted in the wrong thread when I made it, but I’m thinking a 27.5+ hardtail might be my next bike.

    apparently 29” bikes can feel weird for shorties like me, and I like the agility of my 26”

    The extra squish of the plus tires will be nice on a hardtail. But a 29 might not feel weird. Who knows

    I'd rent one of each, 27.5+ and 29. All I see when people say they don't want a 29 is that it isn't agile enough....and I say have you seen anyone on YouTube who actually races/rides their bike with agility? they're most often riding 29s lol
