Compatable? leapord 3.0 tire/ dx 24in
Hope the tittle was clear enough.....Well my question is this...Can you put the wildlife leapord tire(http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=561) on the Dx 24in (05 model), I dont really care about the fram fitting, I can just get another one that fits..but Will it fit the rim? Any help appreciated! -- caw89 'Cody's Gallery' (http://gallery.unicyclist.com/Codys-Gallery) 'sixsixone' (http://sixsixone.com/) AIM: unicaw89 -last edited by god on 3000-01-01 at 12:00 am- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ caw89's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/8228 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/44619 |

Measure the width of your rim, if it's more than 25mm then probably yes. I believev 25mm is stated as the minimum rim width on the sidewall of that tyre. Don't think you're going to be in luck with the frame though. -- kington99 Dave - what a thoroughly post-modern subversion of the cycling genre - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ kington99's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/9417 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/44619 |

I've heard that that tire will fit on the 06s, but NOT on the 05s. -- Skippii One for the Road: Harrisonburg's Unicycle gang. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Skippii's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/7822 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/44619 |

Whoa whoa whoa. It will fit the frame, but the rim will be so narrow that you'll only be able to have it at high pressure. And it will fold over a lot. The 06's have an Alex DX 32 rim, so it will fit those though. -- forrestunifreak warning: the above statement is usually not intended to offend anyone. it has been know to cause warts, ringworm, and diaper rash. it may contain logic, poltical incorrectyness, pshycological nudity, and traces of peanuts.

Hi Cody-- Way better to just spend another 30 bucks and buy a KH 24 rim, the new wide one that comes with the 05 KH Freeride Munis. Gonna use that for Muniing, or what?

Compatable? leapord 3.0 tire/ dx 24in
Ya, if you remember at CMW I did that 8 mi on my trials, and the first ride that i took on my 24 before I broke it the tire was so narrow rolling over stuff wasnt the easiest...I was hoping I could just put a bigger tire on there, but seeing that I have to but the rim too il have to get it relaced, so I think now would be a good time to replace that hub thats broken too...Either that or but a whole new uni...and im a lil cheap for that ....Well thanks a lot for the help guys!! I mean that THANKS! -- caw89 'Cody's Gallery' (http://gallery.unicyclist.com/Codys-Gallery) 'sixsixone' (http://sixsixone.com/) AIM: unicaw89 -last edited by god on 3000-01-01 at 12:00 am- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ caw89's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/8228 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/44619 |

Hey, Cody-- I think if you snoop around you can probably find a used Muni for a real nice price. It ends up being cheaper than trying to toss together something from scraps and mismatched parts. Older (pre 05) KH 24s are out there, and they work great. Remember Eyal rides one, and he gets down everything. I had one I could have sold you for a song but I gave it to Morgan (remember her at Cal. Muni Weekend), Josh's girlfriend.
