I love it. I think it’s the sweetspot size. 29 isn’t maneuverable enough on trails.

My inseam is 28″ so I love em. I’m more confident on my 27.5″ mtn bike than my 29″ commuter–though the latter does do a better job rolling over curbs.

I’ve got a Chromag Stylus and I’m also pretty short so 27.5 is perfect for me. It’s playful and manueverable so I can ride techy trails if I want, but also still have fun on flowy jump trails. I often ride at Whistler and I’ve made it a bit of a game to find any other hard tail rider while I’m up there.
