Greater stability: 36 Pollici believes the wheel’s large diameter increases the gyroscopic effect produced by the wheel in motion. Having never ridden one but hearing the claims, it sounds eerily familiar to those of the early 29er days, but some benefits are new. The Vee-Tire T-Monster 36×2.25 tire currently is the only option and was originally an MTB unicycle offering. Now that rims (both alloy and carbon) are available for those looking, what about the tires? 36 Pollici admits this is the biggest obstacle right now.

They assured us that the bike is more agile than the large frame looks, and can fit a wide range of riders - ranging from 5’4″ to a max of 6’3″. 36 Pollici engineers worked the geo and wheelbase to handle tight trails, and with a wheelbase of 1200 mm, it’s not too far off a 29er. If you’re looking to take this 36er to your local noodlely single track, you should do fine. 36 Pollici doesn’t want to narrow the scope of the 36er, and they feel the platform is suitable for a multitude of terrains.ĭropbars, aluminum frame with carbon stays, and 36″ wheels? Yup, it’s a big wheel gravel bike. We spoke with the crew at 36 Pollici, and they believe the 36er has a home on the trails, but what it seems to do the best is wide open and gravel. The Trentasei frames (carbon and alloy) are made entirely in Italy -more precisely in the city of Brescia.

This new full carbon frame offers a lightweight option for the 36er, paired with a full carbon rigid fork - the Trentasei looks fast.

The latest (and coolest) from 36 Pollici is their Trentasei full carbon 36er mountain bike. Vee-Tire is mass producing a 36-inch tire, and from the looks of it, the team at 36 Pollici are testing many prototypes from other manufacturers.

The team from 36 Pollici is working closely with tire, fork, and wheel manufacturers for a push into the real world. Now we’ve seen the larger tire novelty bikes before, but this isn’t that. They heard the call of the 36er and are slowly prepping the cycling world for its release. The company taking up the charge is 36 Pollici from Italy - which directly translated from Italian means 36 Inches.
