Inspired by vintage MTBs of the 1980s through the early aughts, Brother Cycles just announced its own take on these mixed terrain bicycles; the Pinecone. Designed for 27.5 wheels with tire clearance up to 2.6″ (potentially more at a squeeze) and can take both rim and disc brake. The thinking behind this is simple: the Pinecone would be able to run 27.5 wheels with rim brakes, be it cantilevers or v-brakes, or it could run 26″ through 700c wheels with disc brakes.
Brother Cycles has a full gallery and blog post about the Pinecone, so if you’re intrigued, roll on over to check it out.
