getting a bit confused with all this talk about 29er.
perhaps somebody could help me choose, what might be better for me, based on my riding behaviour and the bikes I have at present.
So I have a road bike - an old trek carbon.
And a Boardman Hybrid Pro - with semi-slick tyres - similar to landcruisers - suitable for fast riding on tarmac and also on forest tracks / bridleways.
Then I have a hybrid Marin Fairfax with cyclocross tyres - which I'll use for riding around the forest tracks and muddy bridleways - but clearly its not really up to the job when its gets really muddy - like it is at the moment and going really off-road is not such an option - so thats why I feel I need something that is more up to the job. I'll also use this if needing to commute in London or needing to leave it locked outside - clearly its not a catastrophe if it gets stolen.
I'm not needing another bike for any competitions/racing etc just want to go off-road / deeper into the forest a little more than I am able to at the moment.
thanks
