arguments for a 26" muni

saskatchewanian said:

When doing MUni a 19 is a Jeep, a 24 is a Hummer and a 26 is a tank.

that makes the 24 sound useless because hummers are useless off road,
theyre too heavy for theyre own good. or was this a comparison to make
the 26 even more awesome??

I realy like my 26 but I haven't had it for long. If I could only have
one muni I would chose the 24 but that has a lot to do with the kind of
trails around here. If I lived somewhere else I might chose the 26 but
I like having both.

As people have said the choices of 24s far excedes the 26s. Unless you
are building your own frames like I do. If I was just starting out
today I would just buy a KH 24. When I started riding the only choice
for a serious Muni was a Hunter which at the time was a thousand
dollars with a Profile hub. I started building my own to save money now
I do it because I like buliding them.

I originaly built my 26 so I could try the 4" endomorph tire for snow
riding and it is only available in the 26. That said I don't think it
realy helps that much. I haven't found any conditions that I could ride
with the 4" that I couldn't with the 3" and it's a $100 tire.

I think that a 26 would be fun, but beacuse nobody really makes one
stock you would have to build it up yourself. I would go with a 24
because they are more readily available.
Also, I am one of those riders who tries to eliminate hops and roll
everything. I think thats how Muni should be, getting from point A to
point B, no tricks in between. I think a 24 is good for this. I ride a
24 with 170s, which were a little long, but i think 150s would be too
short.

I would go for the 24 with 165s or 150s, depending you're riding style.
