What It’s ACTUALLY Like Riding A 32” Mountain Bike!

Описание: Are 29-inch wheels no longer big enough? We headed to the technical trails of Finale Ligure to test an exclusive 32-inch wheel Sour Cycles prototype (complete with prototype Manitou forks and Schwalbe tyres) to see if bigger really is better. From rollover capability and grip to the surprising downsides of agility and weight, we put this monster bike through its paces against a standard 29er to find out if this is the next evolution of mountain biking.
