20" wheel on a 24" frame
i've seen in a couple of trials and street vid's where a rider uses a 20" wheel on a 24" frame. i don't quite understand this as it just seems to me as it would add weight with the bigger frame. does anybdy have a clue as to why people do this? -- unirox13 It Takes Twice The man To Ride Half The Bike! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ unirox13's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/13812 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/58334 |

Some people save up for this crazy thing that you might not know about called college. -- gordito8me 29er or 36er? can't decide either way I have like 54 bucks so nothing too great. radial 360 or nimbus 29er???? helllpppp!!!! helllpppp!!!! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ gordito8me's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/13641 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/58334 |

EDIT:and just get an average square top frame. -- skrobo Unicycle For Christ ____________________________________________ -last edited by \"elvisunifreak\" at 8:35 pm - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ skrobo's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/12272 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/58334 |
