Since beginning his mountain biking career while working as a resort photographer in Greece in 2014, Liam became a freelance contributor at off.road.cc in 2019. From there, he’s climbed the journalism job ladder from staff writer to deputy technical editor, now finding his place as technical editor.

Partial to the odd enduro race, heart rate-raising efforts on slim-tyred cross-country bikes, hell-for-leather e-MTB blasts or even casual gravel jaunts, there’s not a corner of off-road cycling where Liam fears to tread. With more than 40 bike reviews under his belt and hundreds more on MTB, e-MTB and gravel parts and accessories, Liam’s expertise continues to be cemented and respected by the industry.

And just what is the wheel size by the way? 700 something doesn't tell us a lot. ERTO please. 

 

It's a 660mm diameter rim, the same 38mm increase over the 622mm of a 700c/29er as that has over a 584mm 650b/27.5. The way the article above descibes it made my head hurt. You could call this 30.5" if you didn't believe in ISO measurements I guess
