Pointless new standards - name and shame the "innovators".

I get anxiety when there is a bump to this thread.



Great if you are shaq proportions. Rest of us are fine. Why not just go 36er... oh wait...
700c vs 750D is not significantly different. It's more a case of "fark you all, we will make you buy new stuff, peasants!"

29er rolls better than 26er wheels I guess, but 26 vs 650B seems just like this latest BS.
 
Not a new standard, but wowza, the claims in this one are pretty wild

I mean, I'm no Fluid Dynamics Engineer, but air under pressure will be in every nook and cranny in that tyre. A 29 x 2.5 tyre has about 4litres of volume...a litre of air weighs 1.2ish grams. Filled to 30psi, thats 9.6grams of air, which they are not removing...just somehow manipulating it a bit, are they trying to make it spin with the tyre? would it do that already? or just be turbulent? In any case I've probably over-thought this already and you might be better off doing a big fart before you start your ride, or better yet out of a corner. BRAP!

Or fill your tyres with NOS to go faster.
