Still hate Boost spacing? or not know what it is? This video from the Trek propaganda machine gives a very quick and simple explanation for what Boost means for you and your bike, along with the potential advantages for performance and bike design. Given many bikes for 2017 will see Boost featured, it’s worth checking out what that really means.
‘Wider dropouts (110mm front, 148mm rear) give you the stiffness of a 27.5″ wheel with all the benefits of a 29″ wheel, and Boost148 in the rear lets you run wider tires and a larger chainring without affecting q-factor and pedaling efficiency.’
