Switch & Ride: A new concept!
Switch and Ride: One bike, many rides
The Switch & Ride system is simple: an MTB frame that's compatible with 3 wheel sizes.
1/ Choose your Switch and Ride mountain bike in 27.5", 27.5"+ or 29".
2/ Get yourself a 2nd or 3rd pair of wheels.
3/ Enjoy any terrain!
Why 29" wheels?
Each wheels size brings its own benefits:
29" wheels increase your speed and inertia on rolling terrain.
27.5" wheels provide great handling and propulsion on technical, twisting terrain.
27.5" Plus wheels improve steering and grip on technical terrain.
With a single MTB and several wheel sizes, you can easily adapt its behaviour to the type of terrain, the weather, etc.
