  "textContent": "Suvi Loponen\n\nWhen Josh wrote from the Taipei Cycle Show just last month that the annual Sea Otter Classic would be where the 32\" floodgates really opened, he wasn't wrong. At the opening day of the Californian cycling expo and LifeTime Grand Prix race, Teravail announced two tyres and a carbon rim in the new 32\" wheel size, mainly aimed at gravel riders – and they are only one of the many brands introducing new 32\" products at this year's expo. For the show, these were put on the new Salsa Fargo 32\" steel and titanium models. And, for perhaps the first time, there is a small 32\" bike.\n\n2026 Taipei Cycle Show – 32″ tires, forks, wheels, and bikes are hereThe floodgates to the new wheel size are about to open, but it’s still too soon to know exactly when.Escape CollectiveJosh Weinberg\n\nNow, we're starting to see 32\" becoming more mainstream, making its way into larger manufacturers' product line-ups. However, there is still no clear consensus on the best way to create a 32\" bike, rim or tyre, or whether its best use case is in gravel or mountain biking.\n\nAs some of the Salsa staff jokingly noted to _Escape Collective_ at their Sea Otter stand about these being some of the worst 32\" bikes we're ever going to make – alluding to the early days of development of the new larger wheel-size platforms – it's clear from the number of launches that many brands think that the only way to make the 32\" stuff better is to get it out into the world.\n\n## The Camrock and Cannonball tyres\n\n### This post is for subscribers only\n\nBecome a member to get access to all content\n\nSubscribe now",
