Litespeed Pinhoti

Ok, the Pinhoti isn’t officially a plus bike and it isn’t even new, but I spotted this one with plus wheels and tires at the Litespeed booth. Litespeed says the Pinhoti can run 26, 27.5, or 29er wheels–and apparently it can handle 27.5+ wheels as well! This adaptability comes thanks to an optional eccentric bottom bracket. Of course the fork you choose will determine which wheels will work but hey, it’s nice to have options! “Plus one” for naming the bike after a killer trail in Georgia.
