Trek’s 29er legacy

For over a dozen years, we’ve produced more 29ers than anyone else. It’s no wonder we make the best bigwheelers on the planet.

More momentum

A bigger wheel holds its momentum better, so you keep rolling over rough stuff and maintain your speed through the corners.

Better angle of attack

Better_Angle_29_450

Increased wheel size decreases the angle of attack. That means bigger wheels make obstacles seem smaller.

Greater stability

Greater_Stability_29_450

On a 29er, your center of gravity is lower relative to the pivot point (the front axle). This results in a more stable feeling as you sit deeper in the cockpit.

Improved traction

A 29″ tire has a longer contact patch. This greatly improves climbing and cornering ability, and helps the bike float over soft, loamy terrain.

The best-handling 29ers

Conventional wisdom says 29ers have sleepy handling compared to 26″ wheel bikes. We solved that with G2 Geometry, featuring a custom-offset fork and advanced frame geometry for precise handling at low speed without compromising high-speed stability. It’s why Trek 29ers handle better than any others.
