Thanks for this, and part 1! I'll add it to my thoughts which centered around
DH travel, and trail construction. In essence, unless my physics reasoning is
wrong, all wheels will reach the bottom of a hill at the same time, or with a
difference and average that I would not call "significant." See the math here:
<http://www.trailove.com/trail-science/26-vs-29-downhill-a-draw-thats-
physical-law/>. I am still running experiments myself, but it's taking some
time to do. I don't know that there is a bike company conspiracy and
collusion, but I would put it past any multinational trying to make a dollar.
The marketing BS is real, that I know…we have both shown that.
