What is a Boost Mountain Bike and Why Should You Consider It?
Boost is a newer standard for mountain bike wheel and drivetrain design that allows for wider hubs, which in turn creates stronger, stiffer wheels. The Boost standard includes a widened hub spacing of 110mm in the front and 148mm in the rear, as well as a wider bottom bracket shell. This design allows for better handling, more tire clearance, and better drivetrain efficiency.
